Sent request to Boots UK Limited again, using a new contact address.
Dear Boots Customer Service,
Thank you for providing the information requested.
For information for others , this was provided to me personally in response to an email to the CEO of Boots, having received no response from the Customer Service Team. I suspect that the issue was one of Boots' internal systems rather than a deliberate reluctance to provide the information. The information was provided in the detail requested and I therefore now consider this FOI closed
In summary, the monthly average number of prescriptions/items provided in each of the three branches was:-
Foregate St:-- 6,764/14,234
Faulkner St:- - 3,732/6,642
Sealand:-- 2,063/3,763
Yours sincerely,
N.Siddle
