As your local health and social care champion, we want to hear about your experience of using local pharmacies to help identify challenges and make recommendations for improvements to local services.
We want to know how you use your local pharmacy (chemist), including what works well and what could be improved to make it easier to get the care you need. We also want to find out how you get and pay for your prescriptions, and if you have heard of the NHS Pharmacy First scheme.
In January 2024, NHS England launched Pharmacy First to make it easier for patients to get care through their local pharmacy without needing to see a GP. You can now get medicines (either prescription or non-prescription), and advice and treatment for a range of minor illnesses. You can also get referrals to other services, and some pharmacies offer vaccinations and free blood pressure checks.
