Why we're calling for free prescriptions
Many people with Parkinson's have to
pay for their prescriptions. This can be very expensive. We're
worried that some people may not be taking all the medication they
need because they can't afford it.

Campaign for free prescriptions in England
We're worried that some people may not be taking all the medication they need because they can't afford it.
The situation varies in the different countries in the UK:
- In Wales prescription charges have been abolished.
- Prescription charges are being phased out in Northern
Ireland.
- In Scotland prescription charges have been abolished.
- In England, however, younger people with Parkinson's face
paying charges for many years.
Prescription Charges Coalition
We work with other charities in the
Prescription Charges Coalition to show that this is a promise
that has been made to millions of people.
