A BROMBOROUGH based travel clinic has been officially opened by Wirral South MP Alison McGovern.

Swettenham Chemists welcomed Ms McGovern to their Allport Lane branch on Friday, June 29 to open their new travel clinic.

She spent the afternoon working in the pharmacy, experiencing what goes on behind the scenes and met with customers.

Ms McGovern said: “I really enjoyed my time spent at Swettenham Chemists and I was really impressed with all the staff there.

"Their skills and knowledge of the industry was excellent and so was the help that they provide to customers.

"I want to thank them for making me so welcome and for teaching myself a little about the pharmaceutical industry and what is required by those working in it.

"I really find that doing this kind of work shadowing helps me to gain an insight into the different types of jobs that people do and the skills that are needed to enable people to do their jobs successfully.”
