S2 Ep3: Week of Action Special with OCD ACTION
Tuesday, 14 March, 2023
For OCD Week of Action 2023, Beth speaks to Leigh (Chief Executive Officer) and Cara (Communications, PR and Engagement Manager) from UK based charity, OCD ACTION. This episode is a call to government for radical change in the access to treatment for those with OCD. Just under 50% of people with OCD feel they have not had the correct treatment; in this episode we discuss what the barriers are, what needs to change and how you can help people get the treatment they deserve. There are three simple ways you can call for change: 1. Sign OCD Action's petition - add your voice to the call for better access to treatment for everybody living with OCD in the UK https://www.change.org/p/urgent-call-to-the-health-secretary-provide-fair-access-to-treatment-for-ocd?recruiter=1296697989&recruited_by_id=41fc79f0-b68e-11ed-a20e-2f3f955667d9&utm_source=share_petition&utm_campaign=share_for_starters_page&utm_medium=copylink 2. Send a letter to your MP - write directly to the people who can make a difference - use OCD Action's template letter to get in touch with your MP https://app.donorfy.com/form/RQ86BRTCV6/XSKNE 3. Share your story - share your experience of trying to access treatment for OCD with your friends, family and followers on social media using #OCDWoA Please rate/subscribe/share the podcast to help others find us.
