Some Community Pharmacies may have different opening hours over the festive period. Search online for "find a pharmacy NHS" to find an open Pharmacy near you. 🕥🎄

If you require urgent medical help, you can access NHS 111 by calling, going online or using the NHS App.

Between November 2024 and March 2025 residents in Cheshire and Merseyside supported their local NHS to successfully reduce medicines waste saving approximately 60 tonnes of prescription medicines- that is the weight of 𝗙𝗜𝗩𝗘 double- decker buses!!

There are a significant amount of prescription medicines that are not used, binned or returned to pharmacies for destruction. Simply making the choice to only order the medicines you need this time, rather than everything on your list, avoids wasting medicines and money for the NHS.

If you find that you have enough of some medicines at home, then simply don’t tick them on your prescription list. Your GP will continue to prescribe medication for as long as you clinically need it, but if you aren’t due to run out, you don’t need to over-order, and that medicine will still be there for you next time.
