The Dangerous Ideas soapbox once again offered a sparkling array of ideas. The vote was one this year by Anthony Chuter – a patient member of SAPC who argued that we should replace community pharmacy provision with an Amazon-style delivery system! (Well, not quite – a full report from Anthony to follow…)

Prize winners were announced in the closing session.
