This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Free contraception and contraceptive advice are already available from doctors, nurses and pharmacists on a confidential basis through the NHS to anyone aged 13 or over. (In respect of those aged under 16, this is subject to the precondition that they are deemed capable of giving informed consent.)

You can find information about these services on the following webpages:
