A possible option for you would be to do an Access to HE course. You may be encouraged to do one in science by various providers, however the course that you need would be an Access to Pharmacy course and I believe there is one run by the Manchester College in your area *. They are typically one year. As you have started Level 3 you would have to take out an advanced learner loan to do the course, but this is written off when you graduate from University.

*I work for a rival institution that does not deliver the Pharmacy option, but I do teach on an access program
