Hello.
Since I hadn’t posted an update for a little while, I wanted to mention two important initiatives that may be of interest.
Petition to the Welsh Government.
Firstly, Stevie Lewis has started a petition aimed at the Welsh Assembly Government which seeks to raise awareness of the number of people dependent on prescribed drugs. This petition partners a recent petition to the Scottish Government and the work being undertaken by the Council for Evidence-Based Psychiatry.
You don't need to be Welsh or live in Wales to sign, please consider adding your name to the list. The petition can be a little temperamental, so if it doesn’t work first time, please try again, thank you.
You can find out more and sign here:

Launching the RxISK Prize.
Secondly, you may have seen that Dr David Healy’s organisation, Data Based Medicine, has launched a campaign to raise $100,000 as a Prize for finding a cure of one of the most debilitating side effects of modern medical treatments – the close to permanent obliteration of normal sexual functioning stemming from treatment with antidepressants, finasteride (Propecia) or isotretinoin (Accutane).
Since starting in September, the campaign has raised close to $11,000.
Please consider donating if you can, this is incredibly important work. You can find out more here:

Thank you, as always, for your support, encouragement and signatures.
Best wishes
James
