Which membership is right for you?

The Royal College of Pharmacy (RCPharm) unites pharmacy, across all its diverse sectors. And that’s because of our members: sharing ideas at our events, bringing your expertise to current challenges, supporting each other and calling for change together. We’re here to enable you to deliver excellence in practice and to provide professional support, learning and development throughout your career in pharmacy.

What other membership types are available?

The RCPharm is here to support you wherever your career in pharmacy takes you.

What will my new post-nominals be? 

All members now have new post-nominals that clearly specify membership of the Royal College of Pharmacy. The table below outlines how these have changed, and what your post-nominal is now, depending on your membership type. All members should now be using their RCPharm post-nominal (and no longer their RPS post-nominal).
