Petition The government fund programmes to raise awareness of UK vitamin D deficiency.

Vitamin D deficiency in the UK is very widespread and despite the government/NHS to advise the public to take vitamin D supplements, very little appears to be being done to reinforce this. The health impact of this may be very serious, as has been widely accepted and action is urgently needed.
