Sustainable Healthcare in Ash Vale: Why Green Choices Matter in Your Local Pharmacy

At Ash Vale Pharmacy and Travel Clinic, we take pride in supporting both the wellbeing of our community and the environment. As a trusted local healthcare provider, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact while delivering safe and effective services to every patient.

Local care, greener future. That’s our commitment.

What We’re Doing to Support Sustainability

Green Energy Use
We’ve introduced renewable energy sources to power our pharmacy more sustainably. This includes exploring solar energy and reducing unnecessary electricity use across our workspace.

Less Paper, More Digital
We now promote digital prescriptions, paperless communication, and online booking to reduce waste and streamline the patient journey.

Eco-Friendly Packaging
We’re gradually switching to recyclable and minimal packaging options wherever possible. We’re also working closely with suppliers who share our sustainable values.

Energy-Efficient Lighting
Our LED lighting systems and energy-efficient equipment help us save power and reduce carbon output.

Encouraging Walk-In Access
Being centrally located in Ash Vale makes it easier for many patients to visit without needing a car, reducing short vehicle trips and encouraging active travel.
