Craven Arms · local context

Craven Arms PCNs sit within the local West Midlands ICB (Birmingham and Solihull, Black Country, Coventry and Warwickshire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire, Shropshire/Telford and Wrekin, or Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent).

Craven Arms PCNs combine larger urban practices with smaller market-town branches — BCS combines on-site pharmacist days with HSCN-secured remote prescribing for the smaller sites.

BCS removes all of that — pharmacists are part of a clinical team, supervision is built in, and continuity is guaranteed by the Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.
