**The Building the Community-Pharmacy Partnership (BCPP) in Northern Ireland is 
inviting applications for its two funding rounds which will address community health
needs.**

BCPP is a partnership between the [Community Development and Health Network](http://www.cdhn.org)(
CDHN) and the Health and Social Care Board. The programme aims to promote and support
local communities to work in partnership with community pharmacists to address local
health and social wellbeing needs using a community development approach.

The programme is designed to increase local people’s skills, encouraging community
activity and self help, increase people’s understanding of health issues and encourage
people to play a role in promoting health.
