Dr Kristen Riddle, pharmacist and National President of the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) in the US will give a keynote address at Pharmacy Connect 2026. 🎤

“The US is at the centre of world-wide pharmaceutical policy – developments there have direct implications for Australia,” said Pharmacy Connect Convenor, Kos Sclavos AM. “Securing Dr Riddle, who is a passionate speaker and a great leader of the pharmacy profession, is particularly valuable given the US market’s influence across global pharmacy policy.”

Julie-Ann Campbell MP and her daughter recently visited TerryWhite Chemmart Yeronga to take advantage of the new needle-free flu vaccination option. The experience was quick and without needles or tears, thanks to Pharmacist Richie and the nasal spray vaccination offered under the 2026 Queensland Free Flu Vaccination Program.

Thanks to the hard work of teams like TerryWhite Chemmart Yeronga, community pharmacies contributed nearly 40% of all flu vaccinations statewide between 1 March and 5 April 2026. It's a strong start to the flu season, and just one of the ways community pharmacies are helping Queenslanders stay safe and healthy.

Neil Bishop passed away in November 2025, leaving a legacy of care.

This extended to both patients and his colleagues in community pharmacy.

The Guild gives special thanks to Pam Bishop for sharing her remembrances and photos. See them in the Guild Journal: https://loom.ly/k6kIR0g
