We currently provide outpatient pharmacy dispensing services for the Trust on three busy hospital sites and have a developing retail business. This is just the start, we have ambitious plans to grow, we are a profitable company, we have developed a strong platform for growth and have in place a strong team that will work with you to deliver.

Our commitment is to deliver a financial return that can be reinvested in NHS services. We recently achieved social enterprise status, cementing this approach.  Our parent company, Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust (BHT), are a provider of acute hospital and community services for 600,000 people living in Buckinghamshire and surrounding counties in Berkshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire and London.
