Boots the Chemists will be providing the free and confidential service in all its London pharmacies from November this year - as part of a Department of Health initiative to make it easier for 16-24 year old men and women to be screened and tested for chlamydia.

Boots, which said in January that operating profit at the Boots The Chemist (BTC) division was expected to be around £490-500m sterling, said it was now likely to fall short of that mark as its market had deteriorated.
A Boots spokesman said there had been no downturn in the number of customers and profit margins had remained intact, but a hoped-for increase in the value of the average spend had not materialised.
Boots has been cutting costs in stores and in its supply chain as it looks to invest the proceeds in lower prices, but the current soggy state of trading meant it had not been able to go as far as it had hoped, the spokesman added.
