 About the Founders

Janet Williams and Emma Murphy founded INFACT in 2012 after the collapse of Product Liability Litigation against Sanofi. The leading solicitor at the time advised to set up a Trust running a Parliamentary Campaign.  Their aim was to represent affected families in the UK and implement change with regards to the prescribing of Sodium Valproate and to ensure justice for those affected by the medicine.  Nearly 6 years on……. they have achieved just that.

Both Janet and Emma have children affected and diagnosed with Fetal Valproate Syndrome
