The Pharmacy Benevolent Fund supports those who are or who have been associated with pharmacy and are now in need of assistance. The funds raised from tonight will be used to help anyone who is finding life difficult and needs some extra support.
We are so grateful to Ashville Media, all of our sponsors and attendees for helping us organise the Pharmacy Excellence Awards 2024 and look forward to celebrating with everyone this evening.
There is no problem too small for the Pharmacy Benevolent Fund to help with so please reach out to us at info@pbf.ie or https://pharmacybenevolentfund.com/contact/ All queries will be treated in the strictest confidence.
In order for the Pharmacy Benevolent Fund to continue its work, we desperately need more volunteers to help with projects such as the Pharmacy Friends group wich provides a listening ear to pharmacists who just need a chat, raising the profile of the fund via social media and organising fundraising events especially the Pharmacy Excellence IRL Awards. We promise that you will find the work enjoyable and rewarding and by increasing the number of volunteers we have, we can decrease the workload and time commitment.
