We were delighted to be invited to the UTI APPG meeting yesterday.

There was a packed room of clinicians, researchers, specialist nurses, MPs, patient advocates, and even a journalist, all united in pushing for better care, clearer diagnostics and real change for people living with chronic or recurrent UTIs.

We heard updates on the national audit, plans to map specialist clinics and an honest discussion about outdated testing. It was inspiring to see so many voices fighting for progress, and BHUK is very proud to be part of that momentum.

More to come as this important work continues.
