Non Communicable Disease (NCDs) or long-term conditions as they are often referred to in the UK, are characterised as being long in duration, resulting from a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioural factors¹.

• The role community pharmacy can play in their management with a reflection to the long term plan
• The impact of NCDs both globally and locally
