Thank you for your request for information about the following:

Please could you let us know how many community pharmacies in England have signed up to the Pharmacy Contraception Service, broken down by the date of sign up from 24 April to date.

Please could you also provide a breakdown of pharmacy details, including name, address and premises type.

Could you reply confirming receipt of this message please?

On 5 June 2023 you clarified the following:

By ‘premises type’ I meant whether it was a community pharmacy / internet pharmacy / dispensing GP etc as per this list from the GPhC: 20230331_registered_pharmacies.xlsx (live.com)

But if you don’t collect or categorise by that information, please just supply me with the information relating to community pharmacies.
