The Pharmacy APPG, which I chair, held the last of our “Future of Community Pharmacy” evidence sessions recently.

We heard about what could work better, and what more #communitypharmacy can do for patients in the future.

Thanks to everyone who took part - report coming soon!

What the sector needs now is a credible, multi-year pathway back to profitability, and a united voice to demand it.

I'll keep fighting to make sure policy reflects the extraordinary contribution pharmacy makes to this nation. 💊

Lovely to speak about the role #pharmacy can play in helping solve some of the problems faced by #patients and support the NHS

For #communitypharmacy to have a role in the future it needs an immediate funding settlement after being cut to the bone by the last Government.

We had some visitors yesterday…

We need MPs to listen and understand that #CommunityPharmacy is already at breakingpoint. The sector cannot survive on the frozen/restricted funding model. The government need to act.

Patients are blaming staff. Abuse is daily.

It cannot continue.
