Community Pharmacy England wants to hear how pharmacy owners in Thames Valley are feeling about recent CPCF changes and their finances. A new opinion poll is asking how your pharmacy business is faring post settlement and what you want to see in the NHS 10-Year Plan. The results will be discussed at the Committee’s June meeting and contribute to efforts to push for further improvements and support for the sector. The short survey, open until 11.59pm on Sunday 22nd June, offers local pharmacy owners the chance to feed directly into the national negotiator’s work.
