A new video is putting a face and voice behind the hundreds of people who are affected by sepsis in the UK each year. Bringing the condition to life through a live stream of 100 individual stories told by one actor, Warwick Davis.
To coincide with The UK Sepsis Trust’s 10 th anniversary year, the content launched on a live stream from UKST’s Instagram’s (@uksepsistrust), as well as being screened at independent cinemas in London and Birmingham. According to research, though treatable in many cases, there are an estimated 245,000 cases of sepsis in the UK each year, with 48,000 people losing their lives.
In addition to this, around 40% of sepsis survivors suffer permanent, life-changing after-effects. The live stream is the first campaign of its kind from the charity and will be available for a limited time across all social channels, giving supporters and followers the chance to watch this emotional, educational video.
