Consultation has concluded
We are inviting you to tell us about pharmacy services in your area. We regularly review what services we have, what our local people need, and how things might change in the future. This process is called a ‘pharmaceutical needs assessment’ and is being prepared by Southend-on-Sea City Council.
Many people call them chemists, but we use the word pharmacy in this questionnaire. By a pharmacy, we mean a place you would use to get a prescription dispensed or buy medicines which you can only buy from a pharmacy. We don’t mean the pharmacy at a hospital or the part of a pharmacy where you buy beauty products. We also don’t mean other places such as convenience stores, garages and shops where you can buy medicines such as paracetamol.
Consultation closed at 5pm on Monday 7th April 2025.

Your views are important to us so please spare a few minutes to complete this questionnaire. There are ten questions in total in relation to your experience of pharmacies, and also some questions about you. We anticipate that it will take you around three to five minutes to complete, depending on how much additional information you would like to give us.
The results of this questionnaire will be published in the draft pharmaceutical need assessment for Southend-on-Sea City Council which the council will consult on in late spring/early summer 2025.
