Have your say on pharmacy services in Bedford Borough, by taking part in a new survey.

Every three years, a Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) is completed, and the next one for our borough is due to be published by 1 October 2025. 

The PNA looks at what pharmacy services each area has, where they are located and what pharmacy services might be needed in the future. And a key part of this is gathering views of residents to better understand how they access pharmacy services, including the services they use, would like to use and when they use their pharmacies.

An online survey is now available and closes on Thursday 6 February. There will be a further consultation period in the spring.

To take part, visit https://www.bedford.gov.uk/your-council/have-your-say/consultations/pharmaceutical-needs-assessment-resident-survey The survey should not take more than 10 minutes to complete.

If you are unable to complete the survey online, email Public.Health@bedford.gov.uk to request a paper version. Please return any paper versions of this survey to the return address provided on the form.
