Rejected petition: Cancer Shouldn’t Cost Everything: Financial Support for Patients Must Improve
Rejected on
We want the government to provide faster, fairer financial support for cancer patients, increase aid during treatment, and ensure no one fighting cancer falls into debt or hardship while trying to survive.
We want the government to ensure cancer patients can cover the costs of treatment and daily life. Many cannot work and face extra expenses for travel, medication, and care. Support must be quick, adequate, and reliable so patients can focus on recovery without financial strain.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The Welsh Parliament has its own Petitions system. You can find out more here: https://petitions.senedd.wales/
