I AM a retired pharmacist with experience of working in a similar area to Dines Green.

My admiration for Hooman Ghalamkari knows no bounds; he is a very brave and caring young man.

If I had realised that there was an Award for The Community Pharmacy of the Year I would have nominated D G Pharmacy myself before Mr Colin Layland had the chance.

Mr Denham tried to cause trouble by writing to the Pharmaceutical Journal. All associated with local government in Worcester should encourage Mr Ghalamkari's public-spirited effects to bring an essential service to a disadvantaged part of our city, not snipe at him.

MRS P WOOD,

Worcester.
