A man, originally from the Isle of Wight, has taken the helm at a charity focused on Sepsis.
Stephen Moore has been appointed as the first chief executive officer of Sepsis Research FEAT, the UK’s only charity dedicated to funding research into sepsis.
The charity aims to raise awareness and fund research into the life-threatening condition, which affects around 245,000 people and causes at least 48,000 deaths each year in the UK.
Stephen said: "I am honoured to become Sepsis Research FEAT’s first CEO.
"Sepsis is one of the UK’s most urgent health challenges, yet awareness remains too low.
"My focus will be on strengthening the charity’s income, expanding our reach, and ensuring every pound we invest delivers maximum impact for patients and families."
Stephen brings decades of experience in business growth and strategic development, having founded five companies and advised more than 40 others.
He aims to grow the charity tenfold over the next decade.
Craig Stobo, Chair of Sepsis Research FEAT, said: "This appointment signals our ambition.
"Sepsis is one of the UK’s biggest but least recognised killers, and we need to reach many more people.
"Stephen’s leadership and vision will help us significantly step up our efforts, raise greater awareness, and fund the pioneering research that saves lives."
