我们最近启动了我们的竞选活动,不可能忽略,呼吁所有英国政府在计划重新启动治疗和服务时确定关节炎患者的需求。

您甚至可能已经在电视,广播和在线上都看到或听到了在英国各地提到的广告系列。

帮助我们采取行动

自从7月推出以来,我们不可能忽略的竞选活动已在苏格兰的主要新闻节目(BBC苏格兰上的早安新闻节目)中进行了展示。

We’ve featured on the mainBBC晚间新闻(新闻线)在北爱尔兰,以及我们的案例研究之一理查德·霍尔姆斯BBC电台肯特Breakfast Show.

The campaign has reached up to 7 million people through press activity. We’ve also reached almost 200,000 people across social media.

加上支持者在分享这项运动方面的辛勤工作,这导致了近15,000人签署我们的请愿书,要求一项国家计划重新启动联合替代手术,并安全地放下候补名单。

关节炎的疼痛是不可能忽略的

12,000 emails have been sent to politicians in Westminster and the devolved parliaments and assemblies across the UK, asking them to support the campaign and write to their local NHS Trusts about plans to ensure that people with arthritis aren’t forgotten.

使用GP实践的信托,应确保在他们之间,每位计划护理的患者受到COVID-19的干扰,都可以清楚地沟通,以了解他们将如何照顾他们,以及如果他们的临床情况发生变化,则可以联系谁。

Clinically urgent patients should continue to be treated first, with next priority given to the longest waiting patients, specifically those breaching or at risk of breaching 52 weeks by the end of March 2021.

25 MPs have since been in touch to get involved with the campaign and many are taking further action by:

  • 回应选民
  • 写信给当地的NHS信托
  • 代表我们提出议会问题
  • posting on social media in support of the campaign
  • signing up as an关节炎冠军

不可能忽略的是英国范围内的运动

As healthcare is a devolved issue, we’ve been working hard in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to ensure that the pain of arthritis is not ignored as COVID-19 recovery continues.

Scotland

自竞选活动启动以来,苏格兰议会(MSP)的10名成员已与我们联系以获取有关该活动的更多信息,并让我们知道他们已经与当地的卫生委员会联系。

这包括Holyrood所有五个主要政党的健康发言人。(SNP,劳工,保守派,自由民主党和绿党)。

此外:

  • 支持该运动的动议已在苏格兰议会中提出,许多MSP根据我们的竞选活动在议会中提出了问题。
  • We’re thrilled that an MSP has had article published in his local paper about our campaign, explaining why he’s supporting our work and contacting his local Health Board.
  • 我们与绿党和自由民主党健康发言人进行了会议,讨论这项运动。

威尔士

There’s been an incredible amount of action with the campaign in Wales.

SEEDD(MS)的成员收到了我们出色的竞选者的大量电子邮件,许多人已写信给当地的健康委员会,并将使我们对任何答复保持最新状态。一位MS已向卫生部长提出了书面问题。

大量的MSs suppor渴望与我们合作t our campaign, and to make sure the needs of people with arthritis are reflected in their parties' manifestos for the Welsh Parliament elections next year.

此外:

  • 我们已经看到成员支持社交媒体上的运动,并向他们的选民推广我们的热线和支持服务。
  • There’s been an excellent response from the clinical community to the campaign. A number of health professional bodies have agreed to work with us to further develop recommendations to better support people with arthritis waiting longer for treatments due to the pandemic.
  • The majority of Health Boards in Wales have been in touch to welcome input from Cymru Arthritis with their pandemic recovery planning.

Also, we've been invited to be part of a working group set up by the Welsh Government on access to joint replacement surgery, and we’ve been invited to the Welsh Government Orthopaedic Board in August.

北爱尔兰

8位立法议会议员(MLAS)一直与他们表示支持,并同意与当地的健康信托提出问题。

已经提交了两个表达竞选电话的书面议会问题,并直接与卫生委员会的信托首席执行官提出了竞选问题。

一位MLA一直担任卫生直接传播部长,提出了我们在竞选活动中提出的问题,并将使我们保持最新状态。许多MLA收到了关节炎选民的电子邮件。

整个英国竞选活动的前几周令人兴奋,随着锁定继续缓解并继续进行Covid-19的步伐,我们将继续努力将关节炎保持在议程上。

关节炎的人不能忽略自己的痛苦。我们需要让政府和NHS知道他们也不能。
