I am a resident of Hampton North, just like many others who are struggling due to the closure of our local Boots pharmacy. This has left us without any nearby chemist provision, causing significant inconvenience and hardship. Many residents, particularly the elderly, are now forced to undertake long walks or bus rides just to access basic pharmaceutical services.

The lack of a local pharmacy is not only inconvenient but also poses serious health risks. According to NHS England, pharmacies play a crucial role in providing quality healthcare to communities (NHS England). They offer essential services such as dispensing prescriptions, providing over-the-counter medicines and offering health advice. In areas with high populations of elderly people like Hampton North, pharmacies also provide vital support for managing chronic conditions.

The closure of Boots has created an urgent need for another pharmacy in our area. I believe that establishing a new pharmacy at Hampton Square would greatly benefit our community by restoring easy access to essential medical supplies and advice.

I urge the relevant authorities and potential investors to consider this pressing issue seriously. Please help us bring back much-needed pharmaceutical services to Hampton North by establishing a new pharmacy at Hampton Square. Sign this petition if you agree that every community deserves easy access to healthcare services!
