Made some bulla cookies - seem to be well received!

Great to be at the Royal College of Pharmacy Fellows’ dinner last night. So enjoyed @drrageshri.bsky.social as guest speaker re the Unheard. Reminder to listen better & use privilege to amplify. Reminded me of the desire for a Louding Voice. @clarepharmacy.bsky.social @raliatonatade.bsky.social

The Royal Pharmaceutical Society has today officially become the Royal College of Pharmacy, marking a historic milestone and the beginning of a new era of professional leadership and collaboration in pharmacy. Find out more: https://bit.ly/3O5t3EF

Though no longer a pharmacist, I remain a Fellow & look forward to seeing this new era for pharmacy leadership. I have voted in the College elections - if you have the chance to vote please use it.

Been enjoying Dorset life…. including spotting cirl buntings, a first for me.

Good to see the discussion re moving to a Royal College & re union role etc. I think we need a strong & respected leadership body; excellent unions & trade bodies; an effective modern regulator.
