Questions in Parliament

Linda Scotson and TST families represented the charity at a meeting at the House of Commons. They raised the question of government funding for TST families and for for research funds for drug free therapies that have already provided evidence of efficacy as has been done in the case of TST.

There was an encouraging reception which Advance will follow up.
