The Healthy Living Pharmacy concept was developed to by NHS Portsmouth (Primary Care Trust), working together with the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Local Pharmaceutical Committee (LPC). It recognised the significant role community pharmacies could pay in helping reduce health inequalities by delivering consistent and high quality health and wellbeing services, promoting health and providing proactive health advice and interventions.
The Healthy Living Pharmacy (HLP) programme is now being rolled out across a number of other areas as part of an HLP pathfinder programme supported by the pharmacy organisations and Department of Health.
If you would like to become involved in the programme contact your local PCT or LPC for more information.
