Lovely meeting you Amy. It was a late dinner and they closed the cable car before we could get back! Until next time! ☕️
Is that what they mean when you’ve got the running bug?

“When it comes to decision-making, we pharmacists are normally pretty risk averse. However, in terms of the transition to the Royal College of Pharmacy, the greatest risk is that we miss this game-changing opportunity to elevate the standing of pharmacy with government, with other healthcare bodies, and with the public. Let’s take this opportunity to positively shape our future. Please vote yes and confirm the resolution!” Mike Maguire MRPharmS Clinical Lead, North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board and Honorary Professor, Teesside University RPS English Pharmacy Board member I support the RPS proposals for change
