Campaigning

The Hepatitis C Trust's over-arching goal is to shut down because we are no longer needed, in other words because hepatitis C has been eliminated in the UK. Historically, hepatitis C has been neglected, partly because there has been no concerted patient voice and because it is often wrongly stigmatised as a drug user’s disease. We strive to impact on both the political process and the NHS to ensure that the UK works towards its international committment to eliminate hepatitis C as a serious risk to public health.
