Pharmacies

Pre-Consultation: Have your say on Pharmacies in Lambeth

Lambeth Council is conducting a Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) which looks at the health and pharmacy needs of the people who live in your area.  A part of our Pre-Consultation phase for the PNA will include a public survey to better understand the views local people have about pharmacy services in Lambeth. Pharmacies provide over the counter medicines as well as those GPs prescribe. They can also offer health advice and information.

The survey will contribute to the PNA to help to identify where service gaps might exist and how services might be improved. It will also help to make decisions on new pharmaceutical services or changes to existing services. The combined results of all the surveys that are completed will be available on the council website later in 2022. This will be a part of the Consultation phase to seek the views of members of the public and other stakeholders, on whether they agree with the contents of the PNA and whether it addressed issues that they considered relevant to the provision of pharmaceutical services.

This survey should take 10 minutes to complete. We value your input and stress that your answers will be completely anonymous. Any information you provide will not be linked to you and will not affect the care you receive from the NHS or your pharmacy.

 

How to respond: We would like to hear your views on the Pharmacy Services in Lambeth by completing our short online survey.

Close date: 1 April 2022

 

Statuary

Have your say on historic sites with links to the trans-Atlantic slave trade

We want to hear your views on the small number of locations across the borough with proven links to the slave trade. To gather your views we've launched a dedicated website (Commonplace) which details where the sites are located and what their links are to the slave trade. Your views will help us to decide the future of these sites and future sites. 

Background

In Autumn 2020, Cllr Sonia Winifred was proud to host the first event into this important work, which featured Deputy Mayor of London Debbie Weeks-Bernard and more than 1,000 local groups, residents, and national organisations to join in on the community discussion. Following this event, Lambeth Archives carried out extensive research and located a small number of sites in Lambeth with links to the slave trade. At the second meeting held earlier this month we shared where the sites are, what their links are to the slave trade, and it was an opportunity for attendees to share their views and ask questions.

Why we're having this important conversation 

The review of statues, memorials and place names was announced in October 2020, following the appalling killing of George Floyd in the USA and the mobilisation of the 2020 Black Lives Matter campaign. As a proudly diverse borough which has previously taken a lead on commemorating Black leaders in the late 20th century, we have committed to reviewing existing troubling or historic links and assess whether we can legally suggest new names or commemorations to mark the lives and contributions to key people who have made Lambeth the place we know today.
