Every day, as pharmacists you support others. But who supports you?
World Mental Health Day is a reminder that looking after your wellbeing is just as important as looking after others.

At Pharmacist Support, we believe that no one in our pharmacy family should face challenging times alone. That's why we provide free, confidential support for retired pharmacists, pharmacists, pharmacy students, trainees and their families whenever it's needed.

If you're struggling, reaching out early can make all the difference. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stressed, isolated or simply not yourself, you don't have to wait until things reach crisis point.

Today we’re encouraging you to put yourself first and think about your mental health and wellbeing. 💚

💚 Sometimes, you just need someone to listen.
Pharmacy can be rewarding, but it can also come with challenges that are difficult to talk about. That’s where Listening Friends can help.

Our confidential and anonymous peer support service gives you the opportunity to speak with a Listening Friend who understands the unique pressures and experiences of working in pharmacy.

👂 No judgement. No advice. Just a listening ear.
Our Listening Friends are pharmacists or retired pharmacists, trained to listen with empathy and provide a safe space where you can talk openly about whatever is on your mind.
Sometimes, talking things through can help you:
✨ Gain clarity and perspective
✨ Feel less alone
✨ Make sense of what you’re experiencing
✨ Begin to see a way forward

You don’t have to have all the answers, and you don’t have to face things alone. Sometimes, taking the first step is simply talking to someone who understands. 💚 🔗https://pharmacistsupport.org/mental-health-and-wellbeing-2/listening-friends/

Do you want to help champion wellbeing in the pharmacy profession?
We are looking for student and charity ambassadors to join our team. 💚

Ambassadors are an integral part of our team; as a charity, we couldn’t do what we do without a committed and enthusiastic team of volunteers. Ambassadors champion our work within their local pharmacy communities, including their place of work/study, local networks and organisations.

Today is World Financial Planning Day. Financial planning isn't about predicting the future. It's about being better prepared for it.

Money worries can affect many areas of our lives, including our health and wellbeing. And sometimes, even when things are going well, we could all benefit from feeling more confident about our finances.

Whether you’re facing an unexpected financial challenge, worried about debt or benefits, or simply want to build your financial knowledge and confidence, we’re here to help.

Our free resources are available to access here: https://pharmacistsupport.org/financial-health/
As well as finance-specific podcast episodes which may be useful to you here: https://pharmacistsupport.org/mental-health-and-wellbeing-2/a-dose-of-wellbeing-the-pharmacist-support-podcast/

Why does financial planning matter?! 💻💳🪙
It’s about having the confidence to make choices about the life you want.
It can help you feel more prepared for life’s changes, reduce financial uncertainty and give you greater clarity about where you’re heading.

Whether that’s buying a home, starting a family, changing career, paying for an unexpected repair or planning for the future.
Good financial planning isn’t about predicting exactly what will happen. It’s about being ready for what matters to you.

As World Financial Planning Day approaches, take a moment to think about your own financial goals.

In September, members of our pharmacy family took on the Walk for Wellbeing 97 for 97 challenge, walking 97km or 97,000 steps to raise vital funds for Pharmacist Support.

The challenge highlighted a message that's at the heart of everything we do: no one in our pharmacy family should face challenging times alone.
We chose the number 97 because 97% of respondents to our workforce wellbeing survey told us they may need support from Pharmacist Support at some point in their lives.

Through this challenge, we wanted to show that 97% they're not alone.
Every sponsorship donation helps ensure that pharmacists, students, trainees, retirees and their families can access the support they need when life's challenges arise.

We'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who took part in the challenge, as well as those who donated so generously. Your support means so much to us and to our pharmacy family.💚

Together, you raised more than £5,000, including Gift Aid!
A fantastic community effort!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. 👏💚

😊 Happy World Smile Day! 😊
A smile might seem like a small thing, but sometimes the smallest moments can make a big difference!

Smiling can help us feel more connected, lift our mood and create moments of positivity during our day. Whether it’s sharing a smile with someone, having a laugh with a friend or simply giving ourselves permission to enjoy the little things, taking time for joy is an important part of looking after our mental health. 💚

Today, let’s spread a little kindness, check in with one another and remember that looking after each other’s wellbeing can start with something as simple as a smile. 😊
