Building a Healthier Bendigo

At Bendigo UFS, our commitment to community health extends beyond our pharmacy doors. Through initiatives like our $60,000 contribution to Bendigo Foodshare's 'Grow a Row, Pick a Branch' program, we've helped provide over 43,000 kilograms of fresh produce to those in need . Our partnerships with local organisations, including Red Energy Arena, further our mission to support wellness and connection across Greater Bendigo.
