My parents are now having to pay boots to deliver their medications as they come in blister packs .
If they have the postal service the blister packs would no longer be available
Boots now think it’s ok to charge £5 per delivery each person

There is no other chemist on canvey island Essex that provide medications in blister packs.
This is vital for them to receive meds this way as they get quite confused as to when to take them

Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
This would be a decision for Boots Pharmacy, rather than the Government or Parliament as a whole.
