In this episode of Pharmacy Inside Jobs, senior features editor Dawn Connelly talks to prison pharmacist Kaniksha Aggarwal.
Aggarwal has recently founded Prison Pharmacy Connect, a platform dedicated to raising awareness of prison pharmacy professionals and sharing the lived experiences of people who have been on the receiving end of pharmacy services while in prison. She completed the Chief Pharmaceutical Officer’s Clinical Fellowship scheme in 2024 and is currently employed by Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust as an advanced pharmacist specialist working in a men’s prison.
