Pharmacy Campaign - Find out WHAT YOU CAN DO?

Following yesterdays succesful North East Pharmacy conference on the future of Pharmacy we will shortly be putting videos of the key note speakers on our website for those who could not attend to watch.

In the mean time feedback from many of the delegaes present showed a lot of passion and a desire to do something about the current situation.
