Community Pharmacy Midlands is a regional grouping of 15 Local Pharmaceutical Committees across the Midlands
Community Pharmacy Midlands evolved from regular meetings of officers from the four Black Country LPCs. The footprint has expanded, preserving pre-existing contacts and developing relationships with new stakeholders following the NHS reorganisation. Initially forming Community Pharmacy West Midlands, Officers from West Midlands LPCs worked collaboratively to harmonise provision across the area and improve pharmaceutical services for both pharmacy and the public served. The group was expanded in November 2022 to include those LPC's in the East of the Midlands region.
