Serving the local community in Bedford, MK42 8BL, Speedwell Pharmacy is a registered community pharmacy with a straightforward aim: to help people get the medicines and health support they need. The General Pharmaceutical Council lists it under registration number 9012337, and it passed its most recent GPhC inspection. The registered owner is Manor Pharmacy (Wheathampstead) Ltd. Community pharmacies like this one typically handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock over-the-counter products and offer basic health guidance, though what is available at any given branch can vary. Calling ahead is always a sensible step before making a trip. Contact details and opening hours are shown further down this page. It is also worth knowing that since 2018 it has been legal for doctors in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions, but this happens through specialist clinics, not community pharmacies.
