Help shape the future of pharmaceutical services in Harrow

Healthy Dialogues, on behalf of London Borough of Harrow, is conducting a survey to gather valuable insights on local pharmaceutical services. Your experiences and feedback can help shape the future of these services, ensuring they better meet the needs of residents in our community.

Why we need your input

Your feedback matters. Whether you’re a frequent user of pharmaceutical services, have used them occasionally, or have insights into someone else’s experiences, your perspective is invaluable. We aim to understand:

  • How well current pharmaceutical services are meeting the needs of Harrow residents.
  • The challenges people face in accessing pharmaceutical services.
  • What improvements or additional support may be needed to ensure everyone receives the best possible care.

Who Should Take the Survey?

We encourage all Harrow residents to participate, regardless of how often you use pharmaceutical services. Your perspectives will help us build a comprehensive understanding of what’s working well and where changes are needed.

The survey only takes a few minutes, and your responses will remain confidential. Access the survey here: https://forms.office.com/e/T3CLNc3tEu

The survey closes on 16th February.
