World Hepatitis Day 2020
World Hepatitis Day is on Tuesday 28th July. The aim is to create awareness, and social media buzz around Hep C U Later, an initiative to support people to get tested, treated and say goodbye to Hep C.
On 28th July, GMMH’s Drug and Alcohol Recovery Services across Greater Manchester and Cumbria held events to raise awareness of Hep C and encourage people who may be at risk to get tested and treated today.
Thank you to everyone who took part to help raise awareness of hepatitis C and the steps you can take if you think you may be infected!
