I understand that when completed the new health centre will have a pharmacy onsite, makes you wonder what effect this will have on the 2 existing chemists on the main street, it's not only supermarkets that are threatening existing businesses in Silsden |

Well call me old fashioned if you will, they may be owned by the same company but to me 2 shops = 2 local businesses, or potentially 2 more empty shops |

the one at the health centre once its got your first prescription will deliver it free and keep the repeat bit and deliver again free when its due again next month and so on, you dont av to do anything just answer the door each month to receive your prescription.  brill |

It's a great idea, but I think you'll find that Rowlands have offered this service in Silsden for quite some time. |

I order my repeat prescriptions online and get them delivered from Mitchells,and have always had excellent service from them, so I shall just carry on as usual. |
