Sepsis Savvy
Our life-saving awareness campaign aims to equip you with the knowledge you need to seek urgent treatment if you suspect you or a loved one has sepsis.
Why you should get Sepsis Savvy
- Sepsis can affect anyone: It doesn’t discriminate by age, gender, and while certain people are more at-risk, it can affect people who are generally healthy.
- Early detection is key: Quick treatment can save lives.
- It’s easy to learn: In just 5 minutes, you can arm yourself with life-saving knowledge.
Take 5 to get Sepsis Savvy
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that can arise from any infection. It claims 11 million lives globally every year, including 48,000 in the UK – that’s more than bowel, breast, and prostate cancer combined. Yet, if caught quickly, sepsis is often treatable. This is why we need everyone to take five minutes to get #SepsisSavvy!
