Putting the PH into PHARMACY
England Conference 20 May 2012
The world of community pharmacy is changing fast.
Nobody knows this better than you, our members, and our series of free member events and conferences in 2012 will deliver the practical advice and essential industry insight you need during these challenging times.
The NPA’s second annual conference, “Putting the PH into PHARMACY”, is exploring what the public health agenda means for community pharmacy, and how you and your pharmacy team can get involved. Public health was chosen as the theme of the conference, because with the dynamics of the public health agenda changing, the opportunity for community pharmacy teams across the UK to have greater impact on improving health provision is expanding.
The one-day conference will include opportunities to hear from pharmacy and political leaders on public health, and confirmed for the conference include Richard Parish, chief executive of the Royal Society of Public Health.

Why attend?
The NPA England conference is free to attend for all members and their staff and will provide practical advice to members about how to build capacity and skills levels within their pharmacy, not only to survive, but to thrive in these new conditions.
To assist you with your professional development needs, the business seminars will also be accredited with our NPA Training Seal of approval.
