Macmillan Cancer Support is here to do whatever it takes to support people living with cancer in the UK, but we can’t do it without you. So we're asking you to get involved in Sober October by going alcohol-free for the month of October, to raise money for people with cancer.

Every penny raised will play a vital role in helping Macmillan Cancer Support fund critical services, so we hope to see you take part in Sober October this year, raising a glass (of something non-alcoholic) to help Macmillan continue supporting people living with cancer.

People now have the option of being able to have a confidential consultation with a community pharmacist to request a prescription of the contraceptive pill for the first time directly from their pharmacist, rather than from their GP or sexual health clinic.

This is an NHS service and so the supply of oral contraception will be exempt from any prescription charges.

Individuals do not need to be registered with a GP to access this service. Pharmacies will only inform the GP practice that individuals have accessed the service, with their consent.

To be eligible to access this service a person must be an individual seeking to be initiated on an oral contraception (OC), or seeking to obtain a further supply of their ongoing OC:

Combined Oral Contraceptive (COC) – from menarche up to and including 49 years of age; or
Progestogen Only Pill (POP) – from menarche up to and including 54 years of age.
People who wish to consult another healthcare provider for contraception support are still free to do so.

To find a pharmacy delivering this service please search: Find a pharmacy that offers the contraceptive pill without a prescription – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
