Pharmacist, pharmacy technician, and wider focus

  • Overview

    A discussion for everyone working in pharmacy across the UK

    In April 2026, the new Royal College of Pharmacy is scheduled to be established. This has the potential to unite pharmacy in a way we have not seen before

    The UK Pharmacy Professional Leadership Advisory Board is inviting pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, trainees and students across the UK, to learn more about proposals for a more inclusive Royal College of Pharmacy.

    Since April 2024, the Board has been working to co-create a stronger, more inclusive, effective and sustainable professional leadership model for the future.

    In February the Board published its proposals for the future of pharmacy professional leadership in the UK. The proposals have been developed by its members and through widespread engagement over the past two years. They set out a process for future collaboration which will be grounded in further member engagement and consultation.

    Join us for a discussion about co-creating the Royal College of Pharmacy.

    Panel members:

    • Sir Hugh Taylor, UKPPLAB Independent Chair
    • Claire Anderson, President, Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS)
    • Nicola Greenhalgh, President, College of Mental Health Pharmacy (CMHP)
    • Amy Laflin, President, Association of Pharmacy Technicians UK (APTUK)
    • Graham Stretch, President, Primary Care Pharmacy Association (PCPA)
    • John Warburton, Chair, UK Clinical Pharmacy Association (UKCPA)
    • Joseph Williams, Vice Chair, British Oncology Pharmacy Association (BOPA)

    Register now and we’ll send you a joining link ahead of the event.
