Closed 385 signatures

What the petition asks

U.K. Students do not currently receive free prescriptions and dental care. Whilst at university many students struggle with money and forego taking medication and dental checks as they cannot afford it. Allow students to have this at no cost to ensure they're receiving the treatment they need.
