Surrey MP Seeks New Pharmacy to Address Local Service Gap
Following the closure of Boots Pharmacy on Thames Ditton High Street, local MP Monica Harding emphasized the urgent need for a new pharmacy to fill the significant service gap and relieve residents from traveling farther for pharmaceutical care. NHS Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care Board is currently reviewing an application for a new pharmacy to serve the community. Meanwhile, digital innovations like ConsultTed are being developed to empower community pharmacies to manage minor ailments directly, reducing pressure on GPs and hospitals and potentially saving the NHS billions annually. Community Pharmacy England is actively engaging with pharmacy owners through regional workshops to discuss the sector's future and negotiate priorities for the 2026/27 Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework, aiming to strengthen community pharmacy’s role within the healthcare system. Together, these efforts highlight a concerted focus on enhancing community pharmacy accessibility, capability, and sustainability. The articles related to blood cancer awareness were not included as they do not pertain to the topic of community pharmacy services.
