Waive Registration Fees for Osteopaths During Coronavirus Pandemic

Reduce registration fees

We need help. We are all in trouble as a profession.

With patients dropped to zero I simply can’t afford it!

Shame on you GOsC. Help us

I fully agree that we should not have to pay fees given that I may be bankrupt by the end of this.

Do the right thing

Every little helps.

Caring for the carers in time of crisis.

It would help greatly if you are able to do this. My daughter is worried sick ( recently qualified associate ) about how she will survive during one coming months.

Signed. This would help us all so much.

It is vital for us to stay in business that our fees are reduced or deferred.

Reg 8044. Please do not hide behind your small print. Work to change your legislation to support us. We have no income for an indefinite amount of time.

Disgraceful that we even have to ask

Seriously worried that after 24years of being qualified, keeping my head above water just about, whilst juggling three children, husband on low income, mortgage millstone and keeping up a professional standard of practice, that it might all just fall apart. We all need some assistance to keep afloat and every little gesture of goodwill and forbearance might just make the difference between going under or getting through this. We need the protection too not just the public who we do our best to help.

I realise feeds are not directly and automatically in GOsC control. I’m not sure whether this petition is heading to government, privy council, GOsC. If the latter, I hope it will be met with a determination to lobby for a reduction or waiving of fees to those who can make the decision rather than a wet “It’s not possible because it’s not in our control”

Closed the practice so zero income and living on savings until further notice. Waive our fees so we spend on essentials like food for the next months.

without osteopathic assistance i wouldn't be able to do half the stuff i do. going to work, childcare or even managing a household. these guys help give me the strength and support where no one else can.

GOsC need to do the right thing and cancel all fees during this period of uncertainty.

We are an isolated and unrepresented profession in this crisis. Many institutions are recognising the hardships with payment holidays.

Hello. I would expect some sort of help from you to the osteopathy profession, together with some leave from registration fee. Your last magazine was not helpful at all. Thank you
