Our New Opening Times

From 1st December 2025, Central Pharmacy will be open:

Our Team are Here for You.

Our friendly team isn’t changing. You can expect the same great service, expert advice and personal care.

We’re bringing you even more clinical services – with our Weight Management Service starting soon!

We’re still open late on Mondays and Thursdays alongside Lintonville Surgery, to help fit in with your busy schedules.

Our delivery service, and other fantastic pharmacy services, will be continuing as normal. Let us know if you think you’d benefit.

Why are our opening times changing?

Investing in Technology for Quicker Care

We’ve been delivering change over the past year – introducing safe automations in our dispensing processes – even being supported by AI! We’ve delivered great efficiencies and cut our prescription assembly times – so we’re confident changing our hours won’t impact on your waiting time in the pharmacy.

Introducing New Pharmacy Services

We’re more than a dispensary. We’re deploying our expert staff to provide new, innovative health services from our pharmacy – including NHS and Private Services. We can provide Pill Reviews, Blood Pressure Checks, Vaccinations, Weight Loss Support and more…

Safeguarding Our Future

The community pharmacy sector in England has seen a 30% real-terms funding cut over the past decade, resulting in significant financial strain.¹ A recent report highlighted only 6% of pharmacy owners polled reported their business as profitable.¹

Streamlining our opening times, to be open when we’re most needed, will help us care for our patients for years to come.

Welcoming Superdrug Ashington Patients

We’re very excited to welcome patients from Superdrug Ashington to our pharmacy as their dispensary closes on 1st December 2025.
