The Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework: 2019 to 2024 five-year deal commits £2.592 billion per year to community pharmacies. In September last year we announced the agreement with the sector for the remainder of the five-year deal, which included a further one-off investment in the sector of £100 million. The Pharmacy Access Scheme financially supports pharmacies in areas where there are fewer pharmacies.
