In light of the recent NPA announcement, the CCA is committed to promoting the future development of community pharmacy and wants to continue to work collaboratively with all pharmacy bodies and with NHS England, Public Health England and other stakeholders. The vision for community pharmacy outlined in the community pharmacy forward view offers many solutions that will help the NHS to meet some of the unmet need that exists today. We must now, more than ever, all work together to develop these new services as part of a new way of working with the NHS.
