Leigh · local context
Leigh PCNs sit within NHS Greater Manchester ICB (Wigan place).
Leigh PCN is a three-year, 13-pharmacist BCS partnership — the model now offered across the North West, with continuous coverage through sickness, leave and turnover.
For EHCH pharmacy support specifically, the Leigh pathway typically integrates with Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals. BCS standardises the cross-organisation workflow into a single hub-supervised process.

Why Leigh PCNs choose BCS for EHCH pharmacy support.
Solo recruitment for EHCH pharmacy support in Leigh 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 Halifax (West Yorkshire)/Chiswick (West London) dual-hub.
