Treatment for UTIs now available in most Welsh pharmacies

From October, 99% of community pharmacies can now treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) for people aged 16–64 under the Common Ailments Service. This expansion increases access to NHS care for 28 common conditions, including chickenpox, sore throats, and acne — helping people receive care closer to home.

Other featured announcements include:

£1.1 million to strengthen Age-Friendly Wales initiatives.
£1.75 million in grants to help tourism and hospitality businesses.
New electric trains now operating on the Coryton and Penarth lines.
Revitalised sports courts to support community fitness.
