Open petition: Fund free prescriptions and home heating for sickle cell patients

Created by Sam Ahweyevu
Closes on

We want the UK Government to fund free NHS prescriptions and financial support for heating costs during winter for people with sickle cell disease.

People with sickle cell disease often face lifelong costs associated with medication, managing their condition and staying warm during winter. This petition calls for practical financial support to reduce these burdens and recognise the additional costs faced by people living with sickle cell disease.
