Stop the Government's proposed changes to the Skipton Fund

Petition Details

Prior to July 1992, many people were infected with Hepatitis C due to NHS treatment with infected blood, or before 1987 for blood clotting disorders. Many died and many more are suffering with the pain and misery of this disease, unable to work, adding financial difficulties to their stress.

Additional Information

The Skipton Fund was set up to provide ex gratia payments to affected patients.

The Government is now consulting on plans to cut these payments.

We must not let this happen; they deserve all the support they are entitled to.

Please sign this petition and pass it on to as many people as possible.
