And if so, do they deny the divinity of Jesus?

The trinity doctrine is not a Bible teaching.It has its roots in paganism,and was fused into apostate Christianity.
Jesus never claimed to be Almighty God.Jesus' disciples also knew that Jesus was the Son of God,NOT God.-Matt.
16:15,16.
First century Christians did not worship Jesus,but Jehovah God,who is the only true God.
Jehovah's Witnesses also worship the only true God,Jehovah.They too,are well aware of what the Bible teaches.
There are countless scriptures to disprove the trinity doctrine.Many many more than the couple of scriptures that are incorrectly translated or used out of context to try and prove the false teaching of a trinity God

Jehovah's Witnesses are Christians, yet we are no longer a sect of Christianity because genuine Christianity has no sects. (a million Corinthians a million:10; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesian 4:4, 5; 2 Peter 2:a million) The trinity is a dogma it is not any longer TAUGHT contained in the Scriptures.

There are many sects that do not believe in the "trinity" and many that do. The notion of "trinity seems to be based in large part on what is usually called the "Johannine Comma" - 1 John 5:7-8, which was absent in early texts.
Most of the currently accepted "protestant" views of Jesus & the Bible did not even come into existence until the 1500s!

The Jehovah Witnesses don't believe in the Trinity or the divinity of Jesus. While most consider them a cult, they consider themselves Christians.

Yes. Jehovah Witnesses, though they might not want to be associated with Christians, and Christians might not want to be lumped together with them. But there's also a branch of the Pentecostal movement called the Unitarians, because they don't believe in the trinity. For them the only deity is Jesus. Period.
I'm a mainline Christian and I don't give the trinity much of a thought. It was a worthwhile speculation of the early Christian fathers.

There are different denominations which teach there is no trinity but as I said before. I try to think of the trinity as water. It can turn to steam (Holy spirit), Ice (Jesus). They are all out of the same compound water. God in three persons separate but the same. God bless and keep you because you have a wonderful heart. True Christians believe that Jesus is Lord and we get to God through HIM, that is the only way.

They are called Unitarians and there are several of them.
Several of the founding fathers of the US were Unitarians.
BTW, the concept of the "Trinity" was invented by the Nicene Council (Roman Empire) in 325 CE. It is not biblical and is based on forged passages.

Mormonism. It's sometimes considered an errant Christian sect, but this is the only real one that doesn't beleive in a trinity.
They beleive in more of a tritheistic God.
Trinity = one God, three forms (Father, Son, Holy Spirit)
Tritheistic = three distinct Gods
