Fund post-surgery bras/breast protheses voucher scheme for all women post cancer

Closed 3,072 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Government to fund a voucher scheme for all women for post surgery bras and breast prosthesis, giving ladies a choice. This would expand the current scheme to enable all women to access support, regardless of their age or income.
We think supporting this scheme would enable ladies to have more choice. The bra and prosthesis voucher could then be presented to a professional bra fitter from an approved list of trained fitters capable of providing that expertise in a less clinical environment than in hospital. We think people who have had breast surgery should be able to access suitable post surgery bras and prosthesis in a variety of different shapes and sizes from a vast selection of brands.
