Jayne talks about the impacts with the Pharmacist in Stafford Road
Earlier this year the Government proposed cutting £170 million funding to pharmacies in 2016/17. This massive cut could lead to the closure of one in four pharmacies – that would mean eleven across the borough of Sutton.
Pharmacies offer a huge range of services to take pressure off GPs and A&E departments — closing them makes no sense.
Please sign our petition calling on the Government to stop these cuts.
The Sutton Liberal Democrats have also proposed a motion for debate at Full Council on Monday demanding that the Government reverses its proposals to cut the funding for pharmacies.
