I am running to raise money for the Sepsis FEAT research charity.

It's a condition that affected a friend Steve from university who has had his life completely changed from a sepsis infection. Something that he thought was innocuous at the beginning ended up with him being critically ill and undergoing life changing surgeries.

Read his story here:

Sepsis Research FEAT is a registered charity (SC049399) and we are the UK’s only sepsis research charity.

Sepsis accounts for around 50,000 deaths in the UK every year - that's more than breast and bowel cancer combined.

We don't understand enough about sepsis and the biological processes that can lead to serious illness or even death. That is why we urgently need to increase funding:

- to raise awareness of sepsis

- for research: to understand the processes that lead to sepsis, to design effective treatments for it & to help save lives.
