The books are available worldwide, but we're piloting this scheme in UK. If it's very successful and donations are generous, then we'll explore which other countries we can offer it. Most likely we'd want to extend it to Europe, USA, India although happy to hear what you think.

We're restricted how often the GP can give injections, which is why we want to raise awareness.
