UK Stand Strong: Fund Polio Eradication

Tell UK leaders: keep backing the Global Polio Eradication Initiative to protect children everywhere.

What to know:

• Cutting support risks undoing decades of progress, and could let polio roar back.
• UK aid cuts threaten our own health security, polio in UK sewers shows it’s not over.
• Add your name for David Lammy & Baroness Chapman to recommit UK funding to end polio for good.

After years of progress, polio could be back. Failing to eradicate it now may lead to 200,000 new cases per year within a decade. That's decades of progress slipping away. 

The UK has stepped up before in the fight against polio but with recent aid cuts , we’re putting children at risk in the UK and across the world.
This is about more than morality, it’s about protection. Funding for global health helps defend Britain too.

Your signature will urge Foreign Secretary David Lammy and Development Minister Baroness Chapman to continue funding GPEI, backing vaccinations in the hardest-hit regions and reinforcing global health systems. A renewed UK pledge of £50 million per year can help finish the job and keep every child safe, everywhere.
