Closed Free prescriptions for all carers, emergency personnel, NHS workers and police

Closed on

Working in healthcare, the police, the emergency services or as a carer can have a huge impact on a person’s physical and mental health. People working in these roles look after us and our loves ones, and should be supported with free prescriptions.

People working in these roles should be supported through any health problems they suffer, and might be more likely to seek help if they knew they would be eligible for free prescriptions.
