As high streets become more and more dominated by chains it can be difficult to find a truly individual business and this is especially true of pharmacies. Naseem’s is the only surviving independent in Rothwell and seems to be holding it’s own against the much bigger chain pharmacy around the corner. In my opinion Naseem’s is surviving because it is still a place where you can find those odd elusive items that everyone needs but no one can find, they also have a nice selection of the kinds of sweets you only ever see in a chemist shop, things like colts foot rock and imps. Of course the big plus here is the personal and friendly service and the willingness to go that extra mile to help a customer out. I have sometimes found the counter service a little slow but that is more than made up for by the smiles.
