Story
I am taking part in the Edinburgh Kilt Walk, Big Stroll this September with a team of fellow supporters of the charity. This is a 14.7 mile walk from Fisherrow Links (Musselburgh) to Murrayfield Stadium.
Since working for the charity I have been shocked by the devastating impact of sepsis across the world, and how many lives it takes - 5 adults in the UK every day.
Despite its seriousness, many people are still unaware of sepsis and its symptoms, so I want to help raise awareness.
I also want to raise money to fund the vital research which we hope will save lives worldwide and lead to better treatment and outcomes for sepsis patients.
