Stay updated on local networking and education, see stories and highlights from pharmacists in your region and keep connected with your local hospital pharmacy community.
NSW Branch Socials
You can also join your local Branch community on LinkedIn.
AdPha Branch Awards
Each year AdPha is inspired by the commitment and dedication of our Members and their contribution to pharmacy. The Branch Awards provides the opportunity to recognise the achievements of your fellow AdPha Members. All financial AdPha Members are eligible for Branch Awards, and we encourage you to begin the search and nominate your peers or colleagues!
Plus: Do you know someone worthy of recognition in another Branch? Members are able to nominate their peers from outside their own Branch. You can also nominate yourself for an Award!
2025 Branch Awards open Monday, 28 April and close Friday, 11 July 2025!
