If you need to close during normal opening hours

Pharmacies are reminded that the reporting mechanism for temporary service suspensions will be changing from Monday 1 June.

Notifications must be made via the MYS platform from 1 June.

Manual notifications to ICBs will no longer be permitted (except in the very rare circumstances when the MYS platform is unavailable i.e. due to power outage). 

The updated approved particulars will be available from 1 June on the NHS England website.
