Additionally, APTUK branches offer updates on relevant national and strategic issues impacting on the profession, whilst sharing exciting opportunities both locally and nationally.

There are a variety of branches. Some are arranged by region and others focus on speciality topics such as technical, aseptic services and are managed by a committee of pharmacy technician volunteers, who dedicate their time to APTUK members and the profession.

As a branch member, you have exclusive access to meetings, presentations, and webinars on relevant topics delivered virtually via Teams or Zoom.
