About us
Who we are
The Intensive Care Society is the national charity for intensive care.
Since being established on the 8 June 1970, we have increased our direct support to the UK’s multi professional intensive care community to provide them with the latest advice, guidance, standards and learning opportunities across the breadth of their clinical practice to support them as they care for the sickest patients in hospital.
We provide grants to fund vital research and to grow the capacity and capability of the multi professional intensive care research workforce. We provide professional development such as psychological and wellbeing support and leadership training. We use our knowledge and expertise to inform Parliamentarians and Policy makers about the facts on core intensive care issues to encourage lasting change.
