Tracy Lyons, medicines optimisation pharmacist and pharmacy sustainability lead at Poole Hospital, is the founder of Pharmacy Declares, a group of climate-conscious pharmacy professionals. She explains that recycling facilities differ ‘hugely’ across the country making it hard for companies to launch national schemes. There is now more support than ever before, not just in the form of information, but also products designed to reduce cravings and to fight off any of the horrible withdrawal symptoms.

About Us

This policy deliberately focuses on reducing the environmental harm from medicines, rather than the wider climate and ecological emergency. As experts in medicines, pharmacists have a professional responsibility to take a leading role in reducing the environmental impact of medicines use.

The role of the pharmacist and the pharmacy team in preventing illness, optimising medicines and reducing pharmaceutical waste already reduces the impact of medicines on the climate. What we haven’t done before is overtly link the two. If we can focus on preventing the waste in the first place it negates the need for the recycling process down the road’, she says. If you have an NHS account you can use it to login to your account. By doing so we can automatically collect information required to connect to your GP online. When we talk about sustainability we tend to think first about recycling, but some pharmacists believe that pharmacies should be focusing more of their efforts on clinical services if they want to save the planet. This organisation is listed on Companies House as Dispensary Green Ltd, further details on the link below. View on Companies House General Pharmaceutical Council Report Overall Standards Met

According to the NHS, in the UK alone, smoking kills over 80,000 people every year and a further 500,000 people are admitted into hospital as a direct result of smoking. The Green Pharmacy is your local independent pharmacy located in the village of Great Bentley, Colchester. The Green Pharmacy has been established since 1997. We pride ourselves in providing excellent customer service and the best possible patient care. We are often viewed as a friendly NHS Chemist that provides a diverse range of quality services to the local community, typically within Great Bentley, St Osyth, Weeley, Little Clacton and surrounding areas. Ms Lyons believes – perhaps controversially – that we should ‘forget’ about recycling ‘for now’ and instead focus on steps earlier on in the process to reduce the need for products and medicines in the first place.

Modelling shows us that the last 50 years of public health gains will be wiped out if we don’t do something now. increase your engagement with your condition and medicines, supporting you to make decisions about your treatment and self-management In September 2021, we formally recognised the scale and importance of the situation by publishing a climate declaration. Climate change is the most significant health threat modern society has ever faced: it affects clean air, safe drinking water, food and shelter. Significant research and stakeholder engagement has been undertaken to identify key priorities for how pharmacy teams can respond to the climate and ecological emergency.

Pharmacists are trusted health professionals. As a profession we need to inform and educate patients and the public about the link between climate crisis and health, which we hope will motivate others to act, resulting in healthier living and reduced environmental impact.

By starting one or even a combination of the above therapies, they will give a smoker a dose of nicotine in their blood. This reduces the nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cravings, whilst they break away from the psychological habit of smoking. In October, the Professional Bodies Climate Action Charter launched which the RPS became a signatory following unanimous support from National Country Boards. Developed by the Professional Associations Research Network, of which the society is a long-standing member, the charter is designed to guide effective and high-quality climate action by professional bodies. It’s not about being greedy; it is not about taking what you can, it is about the holistic approach and getting the balance right. Patient care is paramount but at the same time we can also take care of the environment while also being successful in our right in a clinical and business sense’.
