Leg Club Industry Partners: The importance of education

A mission of the International Leg Club Committee (www.legclub.org) is to raise awareness of vascular disease among health and social care professionals, the public, UK Government organisations and health care providers. In this short video Dr. Liam Fox MP addresses the importance of public awareness and the need for knowledge of venous disease and the impact of individuals lives.
