We want to explore how people are using their local community pharmacies and how they think services could be improved. As part of this project, we have launched a new survey to encourage people to share their views and experiences. Whether it’s picking up prescriptions, getting health advice, or using walk-in services, your voice matters. By getting involved, you can help shape pharmacy services and improve access to healthcare.

 

We are particularly interested in hearing from:

  • Children and young people
  • Frail/housebound residents
  • Parents and carers
  • People with neurodiverse conditions
  • People with sensory disabilities

All responses will be kept anonymous and any personal information you provide will be kept strictly private and confidential.

Project closes on February 20th 2026.
