Rejected petition Make IVF funding available in Essex

Many couples pin their hopes on having a baby, to be told it's not possible without help is heartbreaking. What makes it more devastating is being told it can't be funded by the NHS, even though it is in other areas of the country. I think this should be standardised across the country.

To have cut the funding from 3 rounds of treatment to nothing is dramatic. People pin their hopes on this treatment, and it is heartbreaking.
