We would like to invite all to stop by the bus and help raise awareness of Hepatitis C in Glasgow! Come support us!
Meanwhile in London, celebrities such as Zoe Ball, Sadie Frost and Ken Livingstone will be getting tested for Hepatitis B & C on a GET TESTED! Awareness bus.
They are urging the people of Glasgow to find out life-saving information from the awareness bus in Glasgow, and to find out whether they should GET TESTED! too.
