CARLETON Pharmacy recently celebrated its tenth anniversary - and its owner says he hopes it will be around for many years to come.

Owner, Jonathan Taylor, said: “We have grown so much since 2012, not only in prescription volume, but also staff numbers, from five when we first opened to 21 now.

“We also got more space, we extended the pharmacy twice over the years and have also installed a state of the art dispensing robot.”

He added: “As the owner, I am incredibly proud of my team and how we’ve coped throughout extremely challenging times, particularly through the pandemic, whilst maintaining our service levels and free delivery service and helping so many people.

“I would like to thank everyone who has supported us over the years and we hope to carry on helping our local community for a long time to come.”
