Fund treatment for RCPD on the NHS

Closed 123 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Government to fund the NHS to make the botox treament for RCPD available on the NHS. The botox treatment is only available through private care and costs £3k minimum privately.
I, along with thousands of others, suffer from RCPD and the botox treatment is only available through private care. I was lucky enough to have £3k spare to pay for this treatment however not everyone has that sort of money in their back pocket. By spreading awareness of this condition, I am hoping it will get more recognition by the NHS - making the botox treament available. The majority of sufferers are born with the condition and do not deserve to live in so much pain and discomfort.
