MRSA Action UK was founded by a group of people who all had life changing experiences or lost a loved one through contracting MRSA. We came together through our involvement in supporting each other and have broadened our membership by supporting others through our work with healthcare providers and the agencies that support the health economy. We have formed alliances with other organisations from around the UK to join in our campaign for safer standards in our hospitals and healthcare settings.

We are all volunteers and share a common purpose - to relieve the distress and suffering experienced by patients who contract healthcare associated infections.  We aim to raise the awareness of the general public in all areas relating to healthcare associated infections.

MRSA Action UK work alongside other patient groups and charities, regulators and government agencies to help bring improvements and safe standards to the healthcare system.

MRSA Action UK is a registered charity with a constitution and the Board of Trustees are elected by the membership annually.

Our Mission Statement

The mission of MRSA Action UK is to raise public awareness and to influence Government and healthcare providers in the fight to prevent MRSA and other healthcare associated infections.

We do this by sharing knowledge and best practice and by providing an advocacy and support service for victims who have been affected by healthcare associated infections. We assist the bereaved and their dependants, and give feedback to Government agencies, healthcare providers and partner organisations through our shared learning and experience. We are guided by the principle that the care and safety of patients is never compromised.
