Make Mental Health medication free on the NHS

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Make mental health related prescriptions free for those of any age under the NHS
I have recently lost my job to Coronavirus, I ran out of my mental health medication a few days ago, meaning I haven’t taken them in a few days as it is. I went to the pharmacy and explained my situation. They explained there was nothing they could do because I was 20, I was denied my medication.
