Farah is a prisoner being held on remand at HMP Bronzefield. She has aggressive stage 3 breast cancer and her applications for bail have faced frequent delays and disruptions.
She urgently needs life-saving chemotherapy. She has missed several hospital appointments due to neglect by the prison. Immediate action is needed to ensure she receives the medical care her condition requires.
This includes urgent access to nutritional food to increase the likelihood of her survival. Her current diet is severely impacting her wellbeing.
We demand that Farah is given a high protein, low carbohydrate diet with a diversity of vegetables as recommended by Oncology specialists.
Prison Service Order PSO 3050: Ensuring Continuity of Healthcare for Prisoners emphasises the importance of providing uninterrupted healthcare to prisoners throughout their incarceration.
We demand that Governor Charlotte Wilson:
Works with the Prison Kitchens to address Farah’s nutritional needs as a matter of urgency.
Takes urgent action to enable Farah to access chemotherapy in hospital.
