Day One Trauma Support began with a courageous mission for trauma care excellence from a leading trauma and orthopaedic surgeon and his patients. Today, the organisation exists to make that vital support available to everyone, everywhere.
Day One Trauma Support is the only charity supporting all major trauma patients, regardless of their type of injury. They offer practical and emotional support to anyone who has experienced major trauma in the UK through their national support offer. With caseworkers in seven major trauma centres, a growing base of supporters and a passionate team of staff and volunteers, they are making a real difference to people at a time when they are extremely vulnerable, and their services are in high demand.
