Hi all,

On Tuesday the Open Rights Group are holding a two hour session to help you protect your GP records from the governments care.data scheme. This will be upstairs in the Town Hall Tavern in Manchester city centre from 7pm.

As well as everything you need to protect yourself, we'll also be able to make sure that the records of any dependants (people you care for, or your children) are protected as well. As the scandal around the government failing to correctly protect your private records increases, these are important steps for everyone to be taking. Unless you get the right from from your GP, and some GPs are better than others, your children might not be protected.

If you were not able to attend our talk last week on the care.data plans we'll also able to bring you up to speed with what is going on, what's already gone wrong, and what we are doing to stop it in future.

More information on care.data is also available from : http://medconfidential.org/about/

If you need them, the details for the event are also at http://www.meetup.com/ORG-Manchester/events/165395272/
