Have your say on local community pharmacy services

9 February 2026

Hywel Dda University Health Board is inviting people across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire to share their views on local community pharmacy services to support the re-writing of its Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment.

Pharmaceutical Needs Assessments enable NHS organisations to look at where pharmacies are located, the services they provide, how accessible they are, and whether any gaps or opportunities for improvement exist over a five-year period.

The views provided from this survey will inform the re-write of the assessment. Once rewritten, the health board will consult with the public, partner organisations and stakeholders before the assessment is finalised and published later this year.

Andrew Carruthers, Director of Operations for Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: “Community pharmacies play a vital role in supporting people’s health and wellbeing and are often the first point of contact for health advice, treatment, and support.

“Your feedback helps us ensure services continue to meet the needs of our communities now and in the future.”

The survey closes on Monday 9 March 2026.
