Volunteering

Positions

Hans-Günter Friese always speaks out against the approval of pharmaceuticals for mail order and for the owner-managed local pharmacy. In his opinion, “pharmaceuticals as a special good” always includes personal, individual advice in order to prevent possible dangers from drug interactions and overdoses. This can only be done adequately by the local pharmacy - with a personally liable owner who is not bound by instructions to any pharmacy chain controlled by corporations.

Awards

In 1996, Hans-Günter Friese received the Federal Cross of Merit on ribbon for his diverse voluntary work . In 2005 the International Pharmaceutical Federation awarded him the "Lifetime Achievement in the Pharmaceutical Practice Award" for his life's work, and he was also elected honorary president of the ABDA in the same year. In 2009, Friese received the medal of merit from the Westphalia-Lippe Chamber of Pharmacists and was awarded the Hans Meyer Medal and thus the highest award of the German Pharmacists' Association for his special services to the pharmacy and pharmaceuticals sector. Due to his national and international work, the city of Fröndenberg named him as the city's most famous citizen on the occasion of the Local Heroe campaign for the Ruhr.2010 cultural capital .
