You can get oral contraception and emergency contraception directly from participating pharmacies, without needing a prescription or GP appointment. This makes accessing contraception quicker and more convenient, helping you stay in control of your s*xual health. Trained pharmacy teams can offer confidential advice and support to help you choose the right option for you. 💊🩺

Emergency contraception can stop you getting pregnant after unprotected s*x (s*x without contraception or when contraception might have failed). If you need emergency contraception after having unprotected s*x, speak to your local pharmacist as soon as you can. You need to use emergency contraception within 3 to 5 days of having unprotected s*x. ✨

Colds are very common in babies and toddlers, and while they can be worrying, most get better on their own with simple care.

Keeping your child comfortable with fluids, rest and age-appropriate remedies can help ease symptoms, and knowing when to seek medical advice is important for peace of mind. Trusted guidance can help you support your child safely at home. 👶🤧💙

The surgery would like to remind patients about behaviour in the surgery.

Our reception / administration staff are doing their job as instructed by management of the surgery and the GP partners. They do not make up their own rules and if you need assistance they will help you as much as they can.

Patients, should you need to sit in a quieter place than the waiting room for any reason, please speak to the reception staff, we can offer you a quiet place in the corridor or if you have a problem with crowds or even the lighting in the surgery we can offer you a pager and this can be taken to your car and the pager can be activated when you are next to be called in.

If you are bringing your children to the surgery, please bring something to entertain them if you think you are going to have a wait, this could be a reading book or activity book from home or even a small device that will keep them entertained (please remember that with other patients around this will need to be kept quiet).

Everyone in the surgery waiting room has a medical issue or is here for their long-term condition checks and we would like to make the experience as pleasant as it can be for all.

Thank you for your co-operation.
