Pharmacists can now apply for the NPA's £10,000 Health Education Foundation bursary.

The annual bursary aims to support registered pharmacists who have an interest in developing their skills to undertake research relating to community pharmacy practice and has now been running for five years. It has provided funding for a range of projects, including evaluating the role of community pharmacy in preventing hospital admissions and measuring the impact of a community pharmacy health screening programme on a local cardio health scheme.

An application pack can be downloaded from the NPA website. The closing date for applications is 30 June 2015.
