Infected Blood Inquiry
The Inquiry will examine why men, women and children in the UK were given infected blood and/or infected blood products; the impact on their families; how the authorities (including government) responded; the nature of any support provided following infection; questions of consent; and whether there was a cover-up.
If you’ve been affected or have any information we want to hear from you.
Please get in touch with the Inquiry and talk to us.
