#GPPharmacists do you support PharmAid?

Improving #medicines use is key to ensuring #health and #wellbeing and overcoming #exclusion in #ourCommonwealth. Help improve the lives of #CWpeople by supporting PharmAid. #Together we can make a difference

The PharmAid scheme is the Commonwealth Pharmacists Association charitable initiative where older versions of the British National Formularies (BNFs) are redistributed to low and middle income countries each year. Given the Commonwealth family encompasses some of the poorest nations in the world, our member countries truly need our support. Without this scheme, these countries would not have access to reliable medicines information and would be unable to use medicines in a safe and effective way. PharmAid gives healthcare workers vital access to medicines information they would otherwise be lacking. This year they are trying to raise £20,000, without which the scheme will not be able to continue. Please consider contributing towards this year’s target. Pharmacists throughout the Commonwealth really appreciate your support!

Make sure that your practice donate your BNFs to PharmAid! Watch this video to find out why…
