One of our colleagues is doing a fundraiser for Nerve Tumours UK - walking and running 50k in May!

May is Neurofibromatosis awareness month - a group of rare genetic condition that causes tumours to grow on nerve endings, and which also has many associated medical conditions and complications. Nerve Tumours UK does fantastic research to help support people affected by these conditions and to work towards treatments and one day a cure!

If you can spare anything to support Charlotte's journey it would be hugely appreciated 💙

Help us reduce medicines waste!

Around £18 million is wasted in West Yorkshire every year on unused medicines. This includes inhalers, pain medication and creams, across our region.

By only ordering what we need we can make sure NHS resources go where they are most needed and reduce the environmental impact of avoidable medicines waste.

Ordering medicines when they aren’t needed can mean you end up with more than you need in your cupboard. Small changes in managing our medicines can make a big difference and help reduce medicine waste in West Yorkshire.

Medicine waste and throwing medicines away incorrectly not only costs money but also harms the environment.

Help stop waste. Check before you reorder and only order the medicines you actually need.
