The Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain (RPSGB) was formerly the statutory regulatory and professional body for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in England, Scotland and Wales. In September 2010, the regulatory powers of the Society were transferred to the newly formed General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC), while the RPSGB retained its professional leadership role; however its name was changed to Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) and the "Great Britain" part of the name was dropped for day-to-day purposes.
