๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Why a strong speak-up culture matters more than ever

A workplace where people feel safe to raise concerns is a workplace that can learn, improve and thrive. With recent changes to Freedom to Speak Up arrangements, organisations are being encouraged to take greater ownership of how concerns are raised and managed.

Building a positive speak-up culture helps strengthen trust, governance and continuous improvement.

It sounds simple, but these are the things that often make inspections and day-to-day management run more smoothly.

Pharmacies are becoming a bigger part of frontline care.

Since the advent of Pharmacy First, more patients are getting treatment for common conditions directly from their local pharmacy, often more quickly and conveniently.

And this is only the start.

With independent prescribing expanding later in 2026, pharmacies will play an even greater role in improving access and easing pressure on GP practices.

For practices, itโ€™s a shift worth watching.
