Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they have taken to increase public awareness of sepsis since their 2016 campaign Helping parents spot the signs of sepsis.

NHS England provides ‘easy read documents’ on its website detailing how to prevent, spot the signs and symptoms of, and manage problems after, incidence of sepsis. Local NHS trusts can also decide to run local public awareness campaigns on sepsis, including for symptoms and management in adults and children. The Government continues to work closely with the UK Sepsis Trust who play a pivotal role in influencing public awareness of sepsis through wide ranging campaigns, online resources, and events.
