As some people will know I raised money last year in a half marathon for the same charity in memory of my mum and I want to keep it going by pushing myself again this year while still being able to try make a difference and help out where I can. So this year I’ll be doing the Southampton half marathon running festival. Sepsis is something that kills far too many people than it should and we need it to be made aware and help out by giving money to make for better research so that we can see the amount of deaths a year decline.

Fundraising is at the heart of our fight against sepsis.

It raises awareness, and sparks the question: “What is sepsis? In this way, fundraising can help prevent thousands of deaths & unnecessary suffering through knowledge & awareness of the symptoms.

It also funds our vital support work, Public Awareness, Educating Health Professionals & helping people adjust to life after sepsis through accessing our Support Group network. We also lobby government to support our cause and makes vital changes in areas such as the NHS.
