Your views on the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's royal college proposals
In September 2024, the Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) put forward proposals to take on royal college status, pending a vote of the membership in early 2025.
The RPS said the proposals were in response to strategic ambitions amid rapid changes in the pharmacy profession, and followed an independent, 18-month-long review of its constitution and governance, led by consultancy firm Firetail.
To share more information with members about why the changes are being proposed and how a Royal College of Pharmacy might operate, the Society's executive team — comprising president Claire Anderson, chief executive Paul Bennett, deputy chief executive Karen Baxter and head of strategic communications Liz North — toured Great Britain to speak with members directly.
The Pharmaceutical Journal attended two of these ‘roadshow’ events to hear from pharmacists and pharmacy students about their opinions on the proposals and to find out what questions they were asking RPS leaders.
More information about the proposals can be found on the RPS website or in The Pharmaceutical Journal’s interview with Bennett, published in September 2024.
If you have any questions that have not yet been answered, you can email them to feedback@rpharms.com.
This episode was produced by Geoff Marsh and presented by RPS correspondent Corrinne Burns with support from executive editor Carolyn Wickware.
