Waive Registration Fees for Osteopaths During Coronavirus Pandemic

I agree that we should have a 3 month suspension of the Professional fees.

If osteopaths are not able to work because of Covid19, and are unable to claim state benefits as they are self employed, it is the right thing to waive registration fees. Thank you

This would help!

I realise this is a government statute but feel totally let down the GOsC response to this crisis.

Would suggest a reduction for annual payment proportional to the shut down period

I believe in this really difficult time, a lot people will struggle to pay for the fee. If this can be waived, obviously could help and be one less stress to deal with.

If we can’t work we can’t be expected to pay

In line with other organisations elsewhere and to support their members in this challenging time, the GOSc must act.

Thank you

Needed!

We can't work. We have no income. The government are not supporting us self employed people with an income.

Agreed!

Registration number 3358

Definitely necessary.

It would really help as I have closed my practice to stay in line with government social distancing guidelines.

I have literally no income now... you must suspend payments.

Totally agree

I am an osteopath of 20 plus years. I have received zero support from the GOSC and intend to cancel my payment to them and if necessary de-register.

This is a really hard time! Please help! Xxx

Thanks for great guidance too
