Colleagues highlighting some of the problems we are facing in community pharmacy. Please, if you speak to any prospective Senedd Members in the upcoming elections, please express your concern that your local community pharmacy is under threat and ask them to address it. We are all struggling under the financial and operational stress of trying to keep our doors open and your support is greatly appreciated.

With costs escalating, pharmacies are making a loss on essential items such as aspirin.

Please see the following publication from Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board regarding co-codamol 30/500 tablets.

Good morning to our Ogmore Vale customers and patients.

Unfortunately, our Pharmacist, Ibtehal, has been held up on the M4 due to an accident. Thankfully she is not involved but the traffic is at a standstill and we don't know what time she will get to the pharmacy.
Until she arrives, we are not allowed to hand out any prescriptions, even if they are ready in bags. We are also not able to sell any pharmacy medicines, e.g paracetamol, ibuprofen etc without a pharmacist on the premises.
You are welcome to bring prescriptions in to be dispensed, but you will be asked to come back for them this afternoon.

We apologise for the inconvenience that this will cause.

22/01/2026

For patients taking Co-codamol 30/500s.

There is a national shortage of this medication and we will run out of stock today.

If you have a prescription for Co-codamol 30/500s and we are not able to fulfill it, you could phone other pharmacies in the Bridgend area to see if they have any stock, but you would need to ask your surgery for a new prescription. Alternatively, you could ask your surgery for a new prescription for an alternative product.

We apologise for the inconvenience.

What we do!

Our two pharmacies are situated in the Ogmore Valley near Bridgend, primarily serving the community from Blackmill to Nantymoel. We work closely with the GP surgeries in Nantymoel and Ogmore Vale and provide a full range of Enhanced and Advanced pharmaceutical services. As well the supply of both NHS and Private prescriptions we support patients to better understand their medicines through the Medicines Review Service. Through the Discharge Medicines Review Service we work with the surgery and hospital to ensure patients receive the correct medicine post discharge and that they understand their new medicine regime. This is done by way of an initial consultation when starting them and a follow-up roughly four weeks later.

We provide a number of NHS services aimed at reducing the need to see your GP. We are accredited for the Common Ailments Scheme meaning we can supply medicines on the NHS to treat a number of common, usually minor illnesses. This service is free to all people registered in a Welsh GP surgery and we do this via the All-Wales Choose Pharmacy application. We are also accredited to provide the Sore Throat Test and Treat Service. Most sore throats are caused by a viral infection, however, if appropriate we take a swab of the throat and test it for the presence of Streptococcus bacteria. If the result is positive we can supply from a range of antibiotics to treat the infection. If the result is negative we will advise on how best to manage your symptoms.

Through Choose Pharmacy we also provide an Emergency Medicines service and can log-in to the list of repeat medicines held at your surgery to ensure we supply the correct treatment. We use this service to help patients who have run out of medication and it is not possible to get a prescription from their surgery.

We provide Emergency Contraception free of charge under our Local Health Board Patient Group Direction. After a short consultation, we ensure supply is both appropriate and safe, again, negating the need for a GP appointment.
