After years of neglect, this Government has agreed with the sector a record uplift to 3.1 billion pounds for 25/26.
Pharmacy is an important front door to NHS services in the heart their communities, we are committed to support and growing their role as we move more care into the community.
We are supporting pharmacies to operate more efficiently including enabling hub and spoke dispensing between all pharmacies later this year.
