Protests postponed after pharmacy funding boost

Spread the love

The government has agreed a new funding package with pharmacy negotiators in England, leading some pharmacies to call off protests that were planned for later this week.
One group representing thousands of local pharmacies was preparing to take action involving cuts to opening hours from Tuesday, but they say that will be delayed while they consider the deal.
Others have said the funding package is a “step in the right direction” but it still will not cover all cost increases pharmacies are facing, including a rise in National Insurance.
Announcing the deal, ministers said they were working to turn around a “decade of underfunding and neglect”.
Community pharmacies have been warning of closures and cutbacks in the face of what they say are unsustainable pressures.
