ℹ️ The way people access healthcare is evolving. We're therefore changing our opening times to better serve our patients and safeguard our local pharmacy. From Wednesday 4th June, we'll be open from 09:00 to 18:00 on weekdays, and still open 09:00 to 13:00 on Saturdays.

💊 We're continuing to provide all of our pharmacy services, with the same friendly staff taking care of you. We can provide free prescription delivery to local patients, and we're always here for you with our 24/7 prescription collection point.

💙 Adjusting our opening times allows us to continue providing our high quality services, to focus on further innovation, and safeguard our position as your friendly, local, independent community pharmacy.

Thank you so much for your understanding & continued support.

Best wishes Greg! ❤️

Greg, one of our fantastic delivery drivers, had his last shift with us yesterday, and is getting ready to enjoy a well-deserved retirement.

Always wearing a friendly smile, Greg has been with us for nearly 8 years and in that time has made a fantastic difference for our patients, even winning 'Delivery Driver of the Year' award from the local pharmaceutical committee, for his caring nature and helping to safeguard some of our older patients.

We hope you have a wonderful, restful retirement Greg, and do keep us informed of your adventures! Thank you so much again for your dedication, hard work and care! 🚚

ℹ️ We’re aware of some issues with our 24-hour collection point for those who need to select a prescription exemption when accessing your medicines from us.

We escalated this issue with the 24-hour collection point technical team as soon as we were aware of it, and we are reassured they are working on a solution at pace, after further conversations today.

If you need to select an exemption for your items when collecting, and a wrong option is chosen, please continue with this option in order to access your medication. Please let us know if the incorrect option is chosen by dropping us an email at morpeth@wellwaycentral.co.uk, and we’ll ensure this is resolved. We’ll aim to double-check any exemptions we aren’t sure are correct.

Thank you very much for your support and apologies for any inconvenience caused at this time. 💊

🩹 Our Pharmacists are medicines experts - and we're so proud to be supporting the community, our patients, and the wider NHS through providing the Pharmacy First service.

We can support you in treating conditions such as Sore Throat, Impetigo, Shingles, Infected Insect Bites, UTIs in Women, Sinusitis and Earache. We have all the equipment, highly trained staff, and the treatments to provide the best possible care, right here in the heart of the community. ❤️‍🩹

ℹ️ Tax Credits are ending on the 5th April 2025. This means patients who hold a tax credit exemption certificate will no longer receive automatic entitlement to free NHS prescriptions after this date.

If you're moved to Universal Credit, check if you're still eligible for support before claiming free NHS prescriptions 👉 www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/check

Please remember, when claiming free NHS prescriptions it is your responsibility to ensure you're claiming correctly. If you claim free NHS prescriptions when you're not entitled, you could receive a penalty charge.

🏦 If you have to pay for your NHS prescriptions, a prescription prepayment certificate (PPC) could help you save money. A PPC covers all NHS prescriptions for a set price. You'll save money if you need more than 3 items in 3 months, or 11 items in 12 months. A hormone replacement prescription prepayment certificate (HRT PPC) is also available for patients who pay for certain HRT medicines. Find out more at www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/ppc
