Prescriptions to rise to £9.35 on 1 April

Earlier this week the UK government announced they would increase prescription charges in England on 1 April 2021.

• A single item will rise by 20p to £9.35
• A 3-month pre-payment certificate will rise to £30.25 and 
• A 12-month pre-payment certificate will rise to £108.10.

Chair of the Coalition, Laura Cockram issued a comment that has been picked up by several publications Wales Online, Bolton News and The Pharmacist.
We will continue to campaign for the government to review the exemption list and scrap the charge for people with long-term conditions.
