For this feature, C+D analysed the responses of 243 locum pharmacists. C+D did not have enough data from Northern Ireland for it to be statistically relevant, so data from the country is not included.

The C+D Salary Survey 2022 ran between October 25 2022 and January 20 2023 and was completed by a total of 1,480 pharmacists and pharmacy staff.
