Dual-hub delivery

The only UK provider with a Yorkshire + London hub.

Every ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes placement in Havering 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 ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes for a Havering PCN through sickness, leave and turnover.

  • Lead delivery from the BCS Chiswick (West London) hub
  • 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

Havering · local context

Havering PCNs sit within NHS North East London ICB.

Havering PCNs cover one of London's oldest populations — care home in-reach, polypharmacy reviews and discharge reconciliation from Queen's Hospital run as a continuous BCS programme.

For ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes specifically, the Havering pathway often integrates with Barking, Havering and Redbridge (Queen's Hospital). BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process so a Havering Clinical Director never has to chase two systems for one outcome.

Why Havering PCNs choose BCS for ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes.

Solo recruitment for ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes in Havering 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 Havering PCN starting your first ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes programme, or a federation coordinating ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes across multiple London networks, the BCS managed model scales without changing your contract.

Frequently asked questions — Pharmacy Technicians for ICBs in Havering.

Does BCS deliver technician programmes at ICB scale?+

Yes — we provide technician programmes commissioned at place level alongside pharmacist provision.

Does BCS already deliver ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes in Havering?+

BCS supports PCNs and GP practices across London from our Chiswick (West London) hub with paired cover from Halifax (West Yorkshire), and is actively delivering or available to mobilise ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes in Havering. 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.

How quickly can BCS mobilise ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes in Havering?+

In most cases BCS mobilises ICB-level pharmacy technician programmes for a Havering PCN within 4 to 6 weeks of contract sign-off, with remote prescribing back-up available from the hub sooner if needed.
