About Hepatitis C Trust
The Hepatitis C Trust is the UK charity for hepatitis C. We support and advocate for people who have hepatitis C and who have had it in the past.
Most of our staff and volunteers have lived experience of hepatitis C. We use this experience to improve care, and in our services; we provide hepatitis C education, testing and support all over the UK in partnership with the NHS.
Our helpline and information service has been running since 2004 and we have a wealth of understanding of hepatitis C itself and of the many ways it affects people's lives.
We welcome you to this community where we can all discuss and share our experiences, support and knowledge with each other.
