NHSE and UKHSA are running a joint campaign to raise awareness of UTI prevention, symptom recognition and treatment including advice on how and when to seek help. This follows a new report published by the UKHSA exploring the burden of UTI hospitalisations in England. 
 
This campaign will be targeted at:
