UK Sepsis Trust
Helpline: 0808 800 0029
The UK Sepsis Trust was founded in 2012 by a world leader in Sepsis, NHS consultant Dr Ron Daniels. Since then the charity has expanded rapidly and continues to grow at a remarkable pace. The small executive body of full-time clinicians and nurses that lead the Trust’s operational centre work hand in hand with a network of volunteers. We aim to reach out and bring together those who have survived, been bereaved by or encountered sepsis in every imaginable circumstance.
