Fund free NHS prescriptions for students and under-25s in England
Extend free NHS prescriptions in England to students and everyone under 25, recognising the financial vulnerability of young people and bringing England closer in line with the rest of the UK.
Increase funding for learning support in schools
Teachers and children need Teacher Assistants and Learning Support Assistants. We believe without vital help and support; teaching and education may suffer, which could have a detrimental effect on all children - not just the children with additional needs.
Fund not-for-profit NHS dispensing pharmacies in all UK towns
We urge the Government to fund not-for-profit NHS dispensing pharmacies in every town in the UK, including the re-opening of any pharmacy that previously closed as NHS dispensing pharmacies. We believe they are a lifeline for anyone in need of prescription medicine and drugs.
Increase funding for NHS dentists and the NHS dentistry system
Provide funding to help build a stronger NHS Dentistry System for all to benefit from. Increase the funding for dentists and appointments so a greater amount of patients can see a dentist.
Fund provision of a tablet for every pupil in KS2 and above to support learning
To support educating our children in a technologically advanced world, fund the provision of tablets to learners, to access apps for educational purposes. Make these Government-issued devices available to learners from the moment they reach Key Stage 2.
