Reminder the practice will be closed today - Wednesday 3rd September 2025 from 1pm.

If you need medical attention, you can call the NHS 111 for medical help and advice 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including bank holidays.

People often feel unwell with various symptoms and do not know the best place to get help. We encourage people not to go to A&E if it isn’t an emergency, but to call the NHS 111 telephone service as a key first point of contact for non-emergency medical help.

When patients dial 111 they are put through to highly trained call handlers, supported by experienced nurses or paramedics. You can also access the service online by visiting:
https://111.nhs.uk/

You will be clinically assessed and either given appropriate advice or referred directly to the most appropriate service which can deal with your injury or illness. This may range from dentist, pharmacy, community service to out-of-hours GP, or in some cases an ambulance.

In the event of an emergency, please call 999.

When you find out you are pregnant, you can refer yourself for NHS pregnancy care so you start care with a midwife right away.

Once you sign up online, the maternity team will contact you to book your first appointment with a midwife.

You should do this by the 10th week of pregnancy, if possible, but it’s never too late to start. If you're over 10 weeks, refer yourself as soon as you can.
