Woolavington Pharmacy - Changes to Dispensary You will remember in 2018 the discussions over the above Pharmacy and the adverse effect on residents in Bawdrip, Cossington and Woolavington. If you are within a mile of the pharmacy as the crow flies the surgery is no longer able to dispense prescriptions. The level of complaints and confusion seems to be growing as things move forward. |
