The talent and triumphs of Wales’ pharmacists took centre stage at the Vale Resort for the annual ceremony which celebrates the extraordinary healthcare initiatives being spearheaded throughout the last 12 months and beyond, from business development to female health.

This year, ITV Wales presenter Andrea Byrne hosted a turnout of 300-plus industry experts and students, who gathered for the reveal of the 11 competitive category winners.

Funds were also raised throughout the ceremony for Pharmacist Support – a well-established, independent, and trusted charity supporting pharmacists and their families, former pharmacists, trainee pharmacists and pharmacy students.
