As we approach World Sepsis Day on Saturday 13th September, I was happy to show my support for the The UK Sepsis Trust and I'm committed to helping my constituents in Mid Buckinghamshire become #SepsisSavvy so they can recognise the early signs of sepsis.


Ahead of World Sepsis Day on 13 Sep, Stuart Andrew and I met with The UK Sepsis Trust. Sepsis is an indiscriminate killer - affecting 245,000 people in the UK every year. We must spread awareness of how to spot early signs of sepsis. Find out more here: sepsistrust.org/about-sepsis/
