On 17th October 2018, HCV Action and Public Health England (PHE) staged a hepatitis C good practice roadshow in Sheffield. The event was designed to showcase and share best practice in the prevention, diagnosis, testing and treatment of hepatitis C, and identify specific issues and potential solutions for tackling hepatitis C in Sheffield and the wider South Yorkshire area.
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.
