It has been anounced that Wales will benefit from free prescriptions from 1st April 2007. Prescription charges are unafordable for many especially those with chronic illness and people on low incomes that don\'t qualify for help.The current cost for each prescription in England is 6.65 and I am campaigning to get England\'s prescription charges dropped and have the same rights as wales to free prescriptions.

I am spending this week sending formal letters to health officials to demand they justify why England remains behind Wales on this issue. Post this link to your Facebook timeline right now to keep the pressure on them. Text three friends and ask them to sign before the end of the day.

We have reached a massive milestone that shows the government can no longer ignore this demand for free prescriptions. Post this link on your Facebook page right now to ensure the pressure stays on until policy changes. Text three friends and ask them to sign before the day ends.

Its not fair that people in wales get them free but we have to pay. People are struggling enough as it is with the cost of living.

Why should your health depend on how much money you have? Its a disgrace.
