Posters, post-cards, stickers and bookmarks will be available in the lead up to the week and during the National Awareness Campaign. These free resources can be used for distribution or for displays in your organisation or community. Simply use this resource form and return to the Hepatitis Council of Queensland to order what you need.  If you require other resources for National Awareness Week contact the Hepatitis Council or fill in a resource order form.

National Awareness Week Activities

You can organise events and activities, and can REGISTER your intended event by contacting Jodie Walton at the Hepatitis Council of Queensland. All activities will then be listed on the National Awareness Week Calendar available via the Hepatitis Australia website www.hepatitisaustralia.com Even if you do not want your event listed on the National Calendar please fill in the relevant sections if you are intending on running an event/activity as this will assist us in the evaluation of the campaign.
