The HCV Action National Hepatitis C ODN Stakeholder Webinar series took place over the course of November 2021, bringing together ODN representatives and a range of partners and colleagues working on the hepatitis C elimination programme for the third annual event.
In addition to a half-day series of presentations, ‘breakout’ webinars were held on specific areas of hepatitis C care: hepatitis C in the criminal justice system; hepatitis C in community pharmacies; and hepatitis C reinfections & harm prevention. This resource offers a detailed summary of each webinar and its presentations.

This report describes the methodology, key findings, and recommendations of the SLWG.
