Blackpool CCG announces removal of gluten-free prescriptions

We have just found out that Blackpool CCG recently wrote to patients to inform them of the removal of gluten-free prescribing from but, unlike in other areas of the country, it has not held consultations with local patients and carers about their views.

We have strongly opposed these cuts and the complete lack of patient consultation and we have issued a press release today. Visit our media centre to read the full press release.
