How to Get Help when your surgery is closed:
Call 111 (Free)or go online https://111.nhs.uk/ : For urgent help when your GP is closed, 111 can book you a GP appointment at an "extended access" hub, find a late-night pharmacy, or direct you to the right service.
Use a Pharmacy https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy/: For minor ailments, your local pharmacist is a great first stop (check NHS.uk for holiday pharmacy opening times).
Call 999: Only for life-threatening emergencies like choking,
chest pain, or severe bleeding.
