Rowlands

The pharmacy chain has taken over the running of four London hospital pharmacies from Lloydspharmacy, a hospital trust has announced.

“The uncertain future of pharmacy funding” has contributed to the company’s multi-million-pound loss, its annual report has said.

A Rowlands Pharmacy branch has reopened its doors after working from a portacabin for over three weeks due to damage caused by a fire in its original premises.

A Rowlands Pharmacy branch has reopened in a “temporary cabin” after the original premise was decimated in a fire, it has announced.  

In less than 24 hours, two UK pharmacies have been damaged by fires – one by a suspected electrical fault and the other “started deliberately”, staff have been “led to believe”. 

Rowlands will take over the running of five hospital pharmacies from Lloydspharmacy in December, it has revealed.

A group of locum pharmacists working for Rowlands have said they feel “intimidated to deliver Pharmacy First services” at the multiple, it has been revealed.

Harry McQuillan will serve as the new chair of Numark, the pharmacy membership organisation has announced.

Rowlands has posted a 500% increase in losses for the financial year ending January 31 2023, according to its latest financial statements.

The multiple and the wholesaler have launched self-diagnostic tests across more than 5,500 UK pharmacies, supplier 2San has announced.
