Take action.

About The Pharmacist ACTNow Campaign
Pharmacist Support is proud to announce the return of our pharmacist ACTNow wellbeing campaign, running this year for three weeks from Monday 20th October to Friday 7th November 2025.
This year’s campaign will focus on three urgent themes identified through the latest Workforce Wellbeing Survey, conducted with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS):
Connection
Personal Budgeting & Financial Support
Navigating Change & Growth.
The campaign will deliver a series of digital resources, interactive activities, podcasts and social media content to help individuals and employers address these challenges in a practical and supportive way. To benefit from all of this, and long-term support, pharmacists will need to sign up to our e-newsletter.
More about Pharmacist Support
Pharmacist Support is an independent charity providing a wide variety of free and confidential support services to those working and studying in pharmacy. We’re proud to be able to support people from such a caring profession and each year we provide thousands of acts of support. Our mission is for no one in our pharmacy family to face challenging times without us by their side.
What Is Wellbeing?
Wellbeing is the state of having good mental health, high life satisfaction, a sense of meaning or purpose, and the ability to manage stress. It's important to realise that wellbeing is a much deeper concept than moment-to-moment happiness, and we must invest in it if we want to have sustained happiness, control of our emotions, higher productivity, and good physical health.
