Introduction
Welcome to the Inclusive Pharmacy Practice (IPP) Resource Repository – a dedicated space bringing together practical tools, guidance, and shared learning to support inclusive, person-centred care across pharmacy teams and services.
This repository has been developed through the work of the South West Inclusive Pharmacy Practice (SW IPP) Group, reflecting a shared commitment across the region to advancing equality, diversity, and inclusion within pharmacy. It draws on collective experience, insight, and collaboration to provide resources that are relevant, practical, and grounded in real-world practice.
Inclusive pharmacy practice is about recognising, respecting, and responding to the diverse needs of the individuals and communities we serve. It means actively working to reduce health inequalities, removing barriers to access, and ensuring that everyone feels heard, valued, and supported in their care.
This repository offers a single, accessible place for pharmacy professionals across all sectors to access resources that support inclusive approaches in everyday practice. Whether you are working in community, primary care, hospital, or education, these materials are designed to build confidence, awareness, and capability.
This is a living resource that will continue to evolve through ongoing collaboration and shared learning. We encourage you to explore the materials, reflect on your own practice, and contribute to the continued development of inclusive pharmacy practice across the South West and beyond.
