CPE Winter Pressures: Share Your Views
Written by AlisonFreemantle on Wednesday 23rd October 2024
Survey, open until Monday 4th November
Community Pharmacy England wants to hear views and concerns from pharmacy owners as we head into winter.
A short survey is now running to better understand how concerned you are about your pharmacy business and how you think that might impact your patients this winter. The community pharmacy sector urgently needs better funding and support, and this is an important chance for you to feed into Community Pharmacy England’s work to highlight the desperate situation pharmacy owners are facing.
The ten-minute survey, open until Monday 4th November, can be completed here:
November 2024 Committee Opinion Poll
Please note, this survey link is for independent non-CCA multiples only, as CCA multiples have been asked to respond via their head offices.
The polling enables pharmacy owners to input directly into the November meeting of the Community Pharmacy England Committee, where they will discuss pressing issues such as the latest on 2024/25 negotiations, monitoring activity for Pharmacy First and flu vaccinations, and workplans for 2025/26.
The results of this poll will contribute to the national negotiator’s ongoing efforts to raise awareness of pharmacy pressures with politicians and the media, and to push for an increase in core funding. This information and outcomes from the committee meeting will be published on the Community Pharmacy England website in due course.
