Training Matters is launching its annual hunt for exceptional pharmacy support staff as the Recognition of Excellence Awards 2018 opens for entries.

Now in their fifth year, the Awards acknowledge and reward the excellent and often unsung work of medicines counter assistants, dispensing assistants and pharmacy technicians, who interact with the public on a daily basis. This year there are 11 categories and you can enter or nominate a colleague for as many as you wish.

To be in with a chance of joining TM at an all-expenses-paid champagne reception and three-course meal at London’s five-star Dorchester Hotel, go to tmmagazine.co.uk/RoE2018. The closing date is March 28.
