To a pharmacy. NHS 111, GPs and urgent and emergency care can all refer to pharmacists for those particular common conditions.
James Wild (North West Norfolk) (Con)
I join others in welcoming the new scheme. Will my right hon. Friend ensure, as part of the communications, that the NHS website is updated to show which pharmacies have signed up to Pharmacy First, and will she continue to encourage those that have not yet signed up to do so?
Dame Andrea Leadsom
What is brilliant is that over 95% of all community pharmacies have signed up, including 172 in my hon. Friend’s area.
