Pharmacy Voice and PSNC are encouraging pharmacy teams to ensure that their constituency candidates visit a local pharmacy.

With the general election taking place on 7 May, candidates have less than one month to engage with constituents.

Claire Ward, chair of Pharmacy Voice said: “Most candidates are out on the streets of their constituencies every day now that parliament has been dissolved. This means there are more opportunities to encourage a visit to your pharmacy to share the community pharmacy manifesto and highlight local issues. It is important to continue raising awareness of community pharmacy as an underused resource which must become more prominent in the next parliament.”
