From 29 October 2025, women in England can now access the morning-after pill free of charge at nearly 10,000 community pharmacies. In this blog, Dr Richard Dune examines how this milestone in women’s health expands access, equality, and reproductive choice through pharmacy-led NHS services. He explores how the initiative removes long-standing barriers to contraception, strengthens community healthcare, and embeds governance, training, and safeguarding into service delivery. This policy marks a cultural shift toward proactive, equitable, and compassionate reproductive care at the heart of every community.
