Happy Pharmacy Technician Day! 💙
We asked pharmacy technicians to share what they love most about their roles, from supporting patients and working as part of a team to learning new skills and making a difference in their communities.
Pharmacy technicians play an increasingly important role in community pharmacy, with growing opportunities to develop skills, expand their knowledge and take on greater responsibilities.
At the NPA, we’re passionate about supporting the next generation of pharmacy technicians through high-quality, accessible education and training designed around the realities of working in community pharmacy.
Inspired to take the next step in your pharmacy career?
Our NPA Pharmacy Technician course offers a learner-centred approach, with flexible learning designed to help you balance your studies with work and personal commitments.

99.7% of pharmacies report rising costs, with 95% citing staffing costs as a key pressure.
As a result, 30% have reduced opening hours and 18% have reduced staffing levels.
