This document proposes a partnership between independent community pharmacists and BANT registered nutritional therapists to establish "Face to Face Wellbeing Centres" in pharmacies. This would allow pharmacists to provide lifestyle advice and nutritional therapy consultations onsite. It highlights opportunities to improve patient care, support public health goals, and increase revenue through additional business from consultations and supplemental product sales. Interested pharmacists are invited to register for an upcoming conference to learn more about participating.
