Our work covers a wide range of medicines optimisation projects, including large‑scale grant‑funded programmes that support improvement across the health system, and projects delivered in partnership with commercial companies. We also lead the evaluation of Community Pharmacy services, focused on understanding the impact of services that improve access to care for people in their local communities. Alongside this, we undertake other medicines optimisation work, including targeted evaluations and pilot initiatives, supporting the safe, effective and appropriate use of medicines across health and social care.
