HI - TECH LOOK FOR PHARMACY,;


A FLAGSHIP pharmacy, which


.. boasts the latest technology and a large customer- ' friendly shop, is banishing


the old adage of the faceless pharmacist.


State-of-tfie-art German storage and dispensing technology has increased efficient^ at Peter ____


Buckley’s new King Street Pharmacy allowing its three phamraersts, Mrs Heather Rawson, Ms Imogen Gnffin and Mrs Loma Harwood, more time to spend wrth their customers.


Although this is a new and really modem pharmacy,


the staff are all the same and our ethos has not ' changed,; Mrs Rawson explained. "We will always


put our customers first.' •


"This modernisation allows us to spend more trme with'our customers which helps to make us stand out from the competition. We know our customers well and strive to give them a personal service tailored to their individual needs.'-


The introduction of this labour saving technology, one of the first in the UK, is a huge investment in the pharma^'sfulure.-


Wrth 80% of medicines stored and dispensed by a fully computensed semi-automated robot, staff at Peter Buckley's can utilise the time they used to spend selechng the relevant drags on other tasks - ■'


'In our old premises, my dispensers wore pedometers and we calculated that they were actually walking up to two miles a day, fetching the medicines from shelving units which spanned two rooms," - ‘ said company director Peter Buckley. “With this new system, all they need to do is type in the name of the medicine they require into one of our frve networked computers and our robot does the rest!" ■ '


He added; "When I staded out as a pharmacist 40 years ago, we made all the medicines and mixtures, up in the back. Nowadays most medicines are ■: • ^ . pre-packaged but treatment regimes can be quite ■ complex and there is a real need for the pharmacist ■ to come out to talk to their customers. This new • technology gives my pharmacists the time to do


lust th a t ' ' With the Increase In life expectancy, the number'


of prescnptions the pharmacy has to deal with ' has increased by five per cent on an annual basis meaning more efficient ways of meeting this demand had to be found


'


Mr Buckley discovered the new dispensing ■ technology on business tnps to Holland five years ago, but was just ivaiting for the software side to


catch up, which was eventually developed by a ■ finnnearChodey.


. .


While in some instances neiv technology can lead to a reductron in workforce, at Peter Buckley's


Pharmacy, the knock-on effect of relocating the pharmacy has been an increase in trade forcing a recraitmentdrrve.'


"Now we'reon the high street, the pharmacy isa ' „ . let brisier and we now employ two pharmacists full-tl'me,' Mr Buckley explained. Idoking to increase the number of dispensing technicians trained to NVQ


Mr Buckley, i ^ o is a great believer in staff training', enjoys high employee' retention t h ^ c u S e m ™ ^ ^ stsff PSh up a lasting rapport and relationship with


Located in a pnme position next door to Clitheroe Health Centre, the smart new pharmacy, which was the vision of award-winning designer Keith Anderson' ’ ■ operates a prescription collection and delivery service. This allows customers to ' opt for their prescriptions to be collected from the health centre, and then either be


picked up from the pharmacy or delivered to the customer’s home address ■ 'this service is particularly useful to the elderly or more infirm customers who are' less mobile and straggle to make It into town,'explained Mr Buckl^. ' ' . - ' '


So why not jxip into Peter Buckley’s, your local independent community phararaev where you w ll find that the latest dispensing technology can go hand in hand with' fnendly and personal customer service, i

NEW HUB: Coun Albert Atkinson (right) Solutions, (s)


A GHATBURN company, which sup­ plies the food industry, will relocate to new multi-million,pound headquarters at Barrow Brook Business Village off the A59.


i. Total Foodservice Solutions Ltd, which


■ currently has a depot on the Pendle Trading Estate at Chatburn, will relocate to the Bar- row Brook site, along with all existing staff. Maria Moriarty, brand and marketing


; manager, said: “There will inevitably be new : jobs created by.the move, but we cannot con­ firm numbers at this stage. “The new depot will be considerably bigger


than the existing site on Chatburn Road and, as such, will allow us to bolster our offering to local food businesses.” The company, which will keep a depot in


, Huddersfield, was able to relocate thanks to a £lm. loan from Lancashire County Coun­ cil’s Rosebud fund. The fund comes from


.County Hall’s commercial arm, Lancashire - ■County peyelopmeiits Ltd. ■.- The company’s relocation into purpose- built multi-temperature hub-depot and office premises on thcT.5 acre site at Barrow Brook; will result in the company being able to increase its production, widen its product -

range and explore new growth opportunities. Total Foodservice chairman Richard Hovvarth


said: “This is an exciting project for the company. By creating this state-of-the-art hub-depot in Lan­ cashire, we are bolstering our service to caterers across the county. “The hub-depot has much greater capacity than


our existing site and will have significantly more chilled and frozen storage than we currently have. Tliis will allow us to hold more stock and work more closely with local producers and suppliers. “The loan investment from Rosebud has allowed


us to progress plans which have been in the pipeline for a number of years. “We are excited to sec substantial growth for our


business over the next few years and are proud to be flying the flag for regional business.” County Conn Albert Atkinson, deputy leader


of the comity council, said: “We are committed to a strong local economy. The county council wants to see business growth and success here. . “It is particularly pleasing that our


£lm-plus loan investment has secured a flagship office and distribution centre in the important food and drink sec­ tor.”

KING’S VISIT: Henry VIII spent the day with the children.


A HISTORICAL study ended in an exciting visit for the children of Thorneyholme school, Dunsop Bridge, when King Henry VIII paid them a visit. Having studied all aspects of the period, from


monarchs to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, by William Shakespeare, the children also visited Browsholme Hall to experience an authentic Tu­ dor house for themselves. The era was brought to life as local actor and


period expert Ray Irving provided a brilliant insight into Tudor times. Activities included re-enacting Henry VIII’s


court, brass rubbing and quill making. : Pupils and staff entered


into the spirit of the day by dressing up in period cos­ tume. Junior teacher Miss


Helen Nicoll said “It was a fantastic experience for the children and was a really fitting way to bring together all that they have learnt.”
