With the Covid-19 outbreak having caused significant disruption to healthcare services, including those for hepatitis C, HCV Action organised a webinar to discuss how services have been affected in different areas across the country and explore how hepatitis C services can most effectively be re-established as we emerge from the early phase of the outbreak. This report provides a summary of the remarks from each of the four speakers and the Q&A which followed.
HCV Action good practice film: The Hepatitis C Trust's Peer to Peer service
In this good practice film, HCV Action interviews Archie Christian and Emma Ward from The Hepatitis C Trust about the hugely successful Peer to Peer service that they provide. The service primarily visits drugs services, and provides informal education and awareness sessions on hepatitis C to at-risk groups and drugs service staff. The film provides an overview of why the service was established; how it is delivered, and what results it has achieved since being set up in 2010.
