Jeannette Howe to receive CPP's Schering Award this year

Jeannette Howe, deputy chief pharmacist at the Department of Health, is to be presented with the College of Pharmacy Practice's annual Schering award.

The award will be presented to Mrs Howe at a dinner in London later this year.

Ian Simpson, chief executive, College of Pharmacy Practice, said that the award was in recognition of her outstanding contribution as a civil servant to the development of pharmacy practice in both the community and hospital sectors, as well as her work on continuing education, research and legislation.

"Jeannette's influence on Government policy in pharmacy is considerable, and she has helped to shape many of the opportunities that are now opening up for pharmacy in the new National Health Service," he added.
