This would offer the public the option to tap and donate £5, £10, £15, or £20 as a gesture of appreciation/support for the service they have received.","additional_details":"By providing a simple way for people to give back, we can encourage a culture of respect, responsibility, and ownership toward the NHS. Currently, people benefit from NHS services without ever being confronted with the financial cost. While the principle of a free-at-the-point-of-use service must be preserved, allowing people the opportunity to contribute in a moment when gratitude is fresh in their minds, could help change perceptions. People are more likely to appreciate what they support.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":6,"created_at":"2025-08-20T20:55:33.355Z","updated_at":"2025-09-16T14:09:47.160Z","rejected_at":"2025-09-16T14:09:03.999Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2025-09-06T12:26:30.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"irrelevant","details":"Decisions about this are a matter for the NHS.\r\n\r\nYou may wish to reach out to your local NHS trust or NHS service to make this suggestion."},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
