Campaign for free prescriptions
In September 2008 former Prime Minister Gordon Brown promised to
abolish prescription charges for people with long-term conditions
in England, something we've been calling for for many years. We
believe the new UK government should honour this pledge.
If you want to see free prescriptions for people with
Parkinson's, please support the Prescription Promise
Campaign. We've joined forces with other charities to campaign
on this issue.
Over 200 people called Gordon Brown on 1 February 2010, asking
him to take urgent action to make free prescriptions a reality.
