Petition Action

Make coffee machines free for cancer patients that are having treatment

Petition Details

Fund money for cancer patients to receive free hot drinks and snacks from the machine, whilst receiving treatment at hospital.

Additional Information

I want the government to do this as cancer patients are already going through a lot, whether that is anxiety or pain. Treatment can be really long and scary and because of covid they can’t even have family with them to hold their hand. I think offering them a chance to have a free hot drink and a snack can really soothe them and make treatment just that little bit better.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.

The availability and pricing of catering facilities within hospitals is an operational matter for hospitals, not the UK Government or Parliament.
