The All Party Pharmacy Group, a parliamentary group, held an inquiry into long term conditions in 2018. The Hepatitis C Trust was invited to give evidence as part of the inquiry and this report, produced following the inquiry, highlights the need to increase testing and treatment for hepatitis C in pharmacies. Pharmacy testing for hepatitis C on the Isle of Wight is also featured as a case study.
