Membership

The Pharmacy Guild understands that community pharmacies must evolve to meet the changing demands of today’s consumers. To help achieve this, the Guild supports community pharmacy with valuable tools to help transform and excel in pharmacy businesses - in addition to our very active and effective ongoing advocacy role.

We recognise that community pharmacies increasingly provide a wide range of medication management and primary health care services while working collaboratively with GPs and other health professionals to help address gaps and unmet needs in the wider health system.

There has never been a more relevant time to be part of the Guild. If you are not a member and are interested in becoming a member and having access to the full range of benefits the Guild provides, contact your local branch to become a member.
