SUPPORT & CONNECT GROUPS

Our groups offer a relaxed, informal environment where you can join others with a shared experience.

ONLINE

SUPPORT & CONNECT GROUPS

Facilitated by our dedicated Support Nurses, these Zoom meetings are designed to bring people together who are navigating similar journeys. We offer specialised groups for those recovering from sepsis and for those who have tragically lost someone to this condition. 

These sessions are built on the principle of peer support, where shared experiences create a foundation for mutual understanding, emotional support, and practical advice. Whether you’re seeking solace or simply want to connect with others who “get it,” our online groups can be a valuable part of your recovery or grieving process. 

How to join an online group

Joining is simple. Browse our list of upcoming monthly groups below and select the one that suits you best. Once you’ve filled out the online form, we will send you the Zoom link and joining instructions. If you’re new to Zoom, don’t worry — there’s plenty of guidance available to help you get started. We also have a guide and FAQ’s here.

FACE2FACE

SUPPORT & CONNECT GROUPS

For those who prefer in-person interaction, our regional face-to-face support groups offer a more personal touch. These gatherings are safe, confidential, and relaxed, providing a nurturing environment where you can meet others who understand what you’re going through. Led by our compassionate volunteers, these groups also follow the peer support model, ensuring that everyone benefits from the shared wisdom and experience within the room.

Facebook Support & Connect Groups 

Our online support extends to Facebook, where we host two dedicated peer support groups: one for those recovering from sepsis and another for those who have lost a loved one to sepsis. These groups are moderated by our Support Nurses between 9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays), offering a space to share, seek advice, or simply connect with others who understand. 

Please note, these groups are intended for individuals aged 16 and over.
