One Hundred Letters

One hundred letters were sent to Sir Simon Stevens the CEO of NHS England on 15th March 2021 detailing years of misinformation and misdiagnosis throughout the NHS. We also wrote to Professor Amanda Howe at RCGP. One of our members living in Northern Ireland wrote to Robin Swann, The minister for Health. His response was appreciated.

As we anticipated a very poor response, I decided to publish the letters. To read them and the responses, One Hundred Letters can be bought on Kindle or paperback; Please ensure you buy the amended editions with the pink and purple covers!
