The Medicine Gap<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”141585″]<\/p>\n

\n

Many New Zealanders who try to\u00a0effect change<\/em>\u00a0by advocating for help or medicines support from Pharmac or the Government do so at a very\u00a0vulnerable time in their lives<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

They, or their loved ones are often ill or trying to come to terms with a life-threatening or terminal diagnosis. Often, they are lone voices calling for change or help. Always, it is a David versus Goliath battle.<\/p>\n

The Medicine Gap is helping to provide a collective voice to the thousands and thousands of New Zealanders who need help to stay well or to stay alive.<\/p>\n

It is our hope that every New Zealander understands the medicines predicament we are in and will join our call to provide First World access to modern medicines for New Zealanders.<\/p>\n
