The first independent community pharmacy to join Celesio UK's new 'Careway' community health partnership has opened its doors, with five more pharmacies set to follow this summer.

The Careway partnership is a new initiative that allows independent pharmacies to benefit from the expertise of Celesio's European Pharmacy Network concept, together with training services and products from across Celesio's portfolio (AAH Pharmaceuticals, Lloyspharmacy and BetterLife), while retaining their independence.

The first pharmacy to sign up to the scheme, Marsden Pharmacy in Harrogate, Yorkshire, relaunched in July and now offers free enhanced services for skin health, pain management and smoking cessation, with plans to offer diabetes testing and anti-malaria services soon.

Nigel Swift, Celesio UK marketing and sales director, said: €Our aim is for pharmacies that work with us to experience immediate benefits and long-term growth.€
