Dual-hub delivery
The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.
Every the clinical pharmacist scope of practice placement in Dunstable is mobilised from one of our two clinical hubs — Chiswick (West London) as the lead and Halifax (West Yorkshire) as paired cover. The dual-hub model is unique to BCS: no other clinical pharmacy provider in the UK runs Northern and Southern hubs with shared SOPs, shared supervision and same-week cross-cover. That is what guarantees continuity of the clinical pharmacist scope of practice for a Dunstable PCN through sickness, leave and turnover.

- Paired cover from BCS Halifax (West Yorkshire) — same SOPs, same supervision
- Same-week sickness, leave and maternity cover guaranteed
- ARRS-compliant, GPhC-registered, IP-qualified workforce
- One SLA, one report, one escalation point

Why Dunstable PCNs choose BCS for the clinical pharmacist scope of practice.
Solo recruitment for the clinical pharmacist scope of practice in Dunstable leaves a network exposed to sickness, maternity and retention risk, and rarely meets the supervision standard ICBs now ask for. BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Chiswick (West London)/Halifax (West Yorkshire) dual-hub.
Whether you are a single Dunstable PCN starting your first the clinical pharmacist scope of practice programme, or a federation coordinating the clinical pharmacist scope of practice across multiple East of England networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.
Frequently asked questions — Clinical Pharmacist Responsibilities in Dunstable.
Are BCS pharmacists IP-qualified?+
The majority are GPhC-registered Independent Prescribers. Where the role does not require IP we deploy senior clinical pharmacists with IP-track supervision.

BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across East of England from our Chiswick (West London) hub with paired cover from Halifax (West Yorkshire), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise the clinical pharmacist scope of practice in Dunstable. Get in touch and we'll confirm current capacity.
What makes the dual-hub model different?+
BCS is the only UK clinical pharmacy provider running both a Northern (Halifax) and Southern (Chiswick) hub. That means same-week cross-cover, one SOP set across the country, and no service gap when staff are off — something single-hub or single-region providers cannot match.
