Since the beginning of 2008 the PR Unit has been working to achieve a greater presence for pharmacy in the national news arena. An archive of news coverage is available via the Society’s online press office, www.digitalnewsagency.com. The site features television and radio interviews with Society spokespeople on a breadth of topics from polyclinics to hay fever, as well as statements and news published online and in national newspapers.
Sign into the site by using the login and password rpsgb1 and visit the "Coverage" section of the site for the archived coverage.
To access multimedia, such as the hay fever campaign webvideo, visit the "Workshop" section of the site.
The online press office is updated on a regular basis, whenever the Society achieves news coverage.
External relations is a high priority for the Society in its roles as regulatory authority and professional development body. Members are encouraged to help promote their profession through public relations activities but it is important that they do so from an informed position. Members can obtain advice on all aspects of public affairs and public relations including liaising with parliamentarians, public bodies and other professions, campaigning, events management and dealing with the media.
The Public Relations Unit co-ordinates the Society's public relations. The Society monitors media coverage of the profession and its activities. References to pharmacy in the media that require a reply by the Society should be referred to the Public Relations Unit. For advice on all aspects of public relations and up-to-date information on Society policies and professional issues contact the Public Relations Unit.
