The family business is now led by highly experienc

e management team that includes Kirit’s children, Jay, Rupa and Sam Patel, supported by his brother J.C. Throughout its dynamic history in community pharmacy, Day Lewis has advanced from being a traditional retail pharmacy business, dispensing medication and offering retail products, into a patient-orientated service provider.

Feeling inspired after yesterday’s London Marathon? 🏃‍♂️ Whether you’re ready to hit the ground running or just thinking about getting more active, you might be wondering… what actually burns more calories: walking or running?

Here’s the truth: both can be powerful, and the “better” option depends on *you*. Running burns more calories in less time, but walking can still be incredibly effective, especially if it’s something you can stick with consistently.

So if marathon energy has you motivated, start where you are. A brisk walk today could be the first step toward big results tomorrow.

And if you’re looking for extra support on your weight management journey, our pharmacies are here to help with expert advice and treatment options tailored to you.

Let’s keep that inspiration going 💪

Happy Easter from all of us at Day Lewis Pharmacy! 🐰💐

Spring should feel fresh, not frustrating!

If you're dealing with constant sneezing, itchy eyes, or a stuffy nose, hay fever might be getting in the way of enjoying the season.

As pollen levels rise, these symptoms can quickly become part of everyday life. But with a few small changes like limiting pollen exposure after being outdoors and taking simple protective steps - you can ease the impact.

The real game changer? Getting ahead of your symptoms early. The right combination of treatments, used consistently, can make a noticeable difference in your day-to-day well-being.

If hay fever is slowing you down, you don't have to just put up with it. Our pharmacy team is here to offer practical advice and guide you towards the most effective options, so you can get back to feeling like yourself again.

Longer days, warmer weather are slowly creeping up… and yes, hay fever season is back! 🌼

If you’ve noticed a tickly or sore throat alongside the sneezing and itchy eyes, you’re not alone. Pollen can lead to extra mucus, which drips down the back of your throat and causes that uncomfortable irritation.

It can really take the shine off 🌿

But there’s an easy way to get support.

Our Pharmacy First service means you can speak directly to our trained team, who can help identify what’s causing your symptoms and recommend the best treatment, no appointment needed.

Pop in, have a chat, and let’s get you feeling more like yourself again so you can enjoy the season properly ☀️ Book your appointment or walk-ins welcome! https://www.daylewis.co.uk/pharmacy-first/

With the current meningitis outbreak, it’s important to stay informed and aware.

Meningitis is a serious condition, and knowing what to look out for can make all the difference.

If you or someone you know is feeling unwell or showing any of these symptoms, trust your instincts.

Seek medical advice and don’t hesitate to reach out to NHS; early attention can make a real difference.

Stay aware, look out for one another, and take care.
