The General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) has published Putting our strategy into action: our delivery plan for 2025-2030, outlining how its 2025-30 strategy will be delivered.
The GPhC vision for 2030 is clear, safe and effective pharmacy care at the heart of healthier communities. Putting our strategy into action: our delivery plan for 2025-2030 sets out how the GPhC will work towards that vision by putting its strategic aims into practice.
The GPhC Strategy 2025-30 sets out three aims:
- Strategic aim 1 - Empower pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to provide trusted, safe and effective pharmacy care
- Strategic aim 2 - Protect patients and the public by working with healthcare regulators and other organisations
- Strategic aim 3 - Build a skilled, agile, and inclusive organisation to regulate effectively and efficiently
This plan shows what the GPhC will deliver, why it matters and how progress will be measured. It links long-term ambitions to practical action, setting clear priorities for 2025-26 and presenting the direction for future years.
Chris Askew, Interim Chief Executive of the GPhC, said:
“Our strategy sets out how the GPhC will uphold safety, quality and public trust in pharmacy. This plan shows how we will deliver that strategy in a time of significant change across England, Wales and Scotland.
“It focuses on what matters to patients, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy owners, and explains how registrants’ fees are being used responsibly to strengthen regulation, by improving support, driving greater consistency and investing in the areas that make the biggest difference to safety and public confidence.
“Above all, it is about accountability, highlighting the progress we are making and the impact it is having.”
Chair of the GPhC, Gisela Abbam, said:
“This delivery plan is guided by our purpose to protect, promote and maintain the health, safety and wellbeing of the public.
“It is about action, and what we are doing to deliver our core regulatory responsibilities, as well as dealing with potential future challenges and opportunities.
“Pharmacy is evolving rapidly. While the delivery plan sets out a clear direction, it is also adaptable to ensure we are responsive and proactive to change, so that what we deliver is relevant and effective in all the nations we regulate.”
