Their website states that "you wanted to describe The Hepatitis C Trust in a single sentence, you would not be far off the mark to say that it is a group of people with hep C trying to help other people who are affected by hep C.”

The initial vision of the trust was to create:

  • To create a much needed UK based website providing reliable information.
  • To set up a helpline manned by people who have or have had hepatitis C.
  • To improve services and education within the NHS.
  • To put pressure on the government to push hepatitis C further up their agenda because the UK has lagged so far behind other countries in terms of patient care, diagnosis, destigmatisation and raising awareness.

PS - Health and Poverty

Perhaps the biggest cause of ill health in the world is poverty. Help to Make Poverty History. For example, why not lend some of your money to disadvantaged communities to enable them to trade their way out of poverty through schemes such as Shared Interest.

See also MAKEPOVERTYHISTORY North East for details and links to campaigns against poverty.
