Boots healthcare director urges pharmacists to vote for company candidates

Boots UK’s healthcare director Tricia Kennerley has urged pharmacists employed by Boots to vote for their colleagues who are seeking election to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society’s Council or English National Board.

She is understood to have said via the company intranet: “Dear pharmacists, two of our colleagues at Boots UK are standing for election to positions at the Royal Pharmaceutical Society. By voting for them you could help maintain the company’s key objective of being highly influential externally.”

A Boots insider has confirmed the message was sent. A complaint about the message has been sent to the Society.
