  1. Enabling community pharmacy evolution

  2. About Us Established in 1898, the CCA is the trade association for large pharmacy operators in England, Scotland and Wales. Our membership includes ASDA, Boots, LloydsPharmacy, Morrisons, Rowlands Pharmacy, Superdrug, Tesco and Well, who between them own and operate over 6,000 pharmacies which represents nearly half the market in England, Scotland and Wales. They deliver a broad range of healthcare and wellbeing services, from a variety of locations and settings, as well as dispensing over 500 million NHS prescription items every year.

  3. What we do Our vision is that everyone, everywhere, can benefit from world class healthcare and wellbeing services provided by their community pharmacy. The CCA represents the interests of its members by bringing together their unique skills, knowledge and scale for the benefit of community pharmacy, the NHS, patients and the public. Our members provide care across a wide range of settings, from shopping centres to local communities and from hypermarkets to health centres.

  4. How we work CCA Board CCA Executive Team CCA Working Groups CCA nominated local representatives

  5. The Board The CCA Board consists of 12 Directors appointed by our member organisations and also includes our Chief Executive. Our Board meets regularly and is responsible for setting our strategic direction, as well as for our overall governance and overseeing our management. CCA representatives are also nominated to sit on the Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee (PSNC), Community Pharmacy Scotland (CPS) and Community Pharmacy Wales (CPW).

  6. The Executive team The CCA executive team is based in central London, and has dedicated resource based in both Scotland and Wales. The team consists of policy and communication experts who work with our Board, our Working Groups and our LPC representatives in order to influence policies and change attitudes both within the sector and across the wider healthcare arena. This supports our members to deliver world class healthcare and wellbeing services where and when they are needed most.

  7. CCA Working Groups The CCA maintains six standing working groups, consisting of representatives from each of its members. These Working Groups meet regularly and their work is aimed at supporting the evolution of the role of community pharmacy, and how it can address the priorities of the NHS across England, Scotland and Wales. Areas of focus include external relations, pharmacy practice, service evolution, LPC support, Scottish pharmacy and Welsh pharmacy. The CCA also supports three cross-sector working groups, focusing on Patient Safety; Workforce Development; and IT development.

  8. Local representation CCA Member organisations nominate over 400 representatives to sit on local contractor committees across England, Scotland and Wales. These committees are independent groups which represent community pharmacy contractors at a local level, and who work with local NHS commissioning structures, local authorities and other healthcare professionals to help plan healthcare services.
