Welcome to the Community Dragon. In lack of a Profile I am assuming from your name that you are in the UK.

Conserves are supplied free by the NHS. To obtain one you will need a prescription from your pulmonary care team. I you do not have one of these looking after you then you need your GP to refer you to a Consultant. Bottom line is that if they assess you as needing oxygen equipment they will arrange for you to receive this delivered to your home by your local home oxygen supplier.

Hi

As as been said, oxygen equipment including Conservers are free on the NHS, providing you have been assessed for oxygen theraphy.

If you do need to purchase you own you can try the following link.

Not cheap.

They will only supply oxygen equipment on receipt of a prescription from your oxygen team or GP?
