Our charity of the year 2018 is The Sepsis Trust UK. As many of you may be aware, this campaign has been hitting TV screens across the UK, due to the lack of awareness of this killer disease.
Laura, from our Birchfield Road setting, has been working directly with a lady called Melissa Mead, who is leading the campaign following the tragic loss of her son William Mead in 2014. William unfortunately lost his life at the age of just 1 due to contracting the disease. Melissa is trying to raise awareness to all parents/carers to recognise the symptoms and simply ask “Could this be SEPSIS?”
Throughout the months of July and August, we will be holding fundraising events across all of our nurseries and we would love to raise as much money as we possibly can, which will all go directly to The Sepsis UK Trust.
We hope to raise as much money as possible, and spark the question: “What is sepsis? I’ve never heard of it!” so that we too can help raise awareness.
