Prescription strength medicines without a GP
Walk-in service, no need for appointment
Award-winning pharmacy
Call the pharmacy if you need health treatment or advice but are not able to see your doctor when you need to. We provide a variety of helpful, convenient, free (NHS-funded), walk-in services.
This service is also referred to as the Hypertension case-finding service
High blood pressure can place you at risk of life-shortening events. If you are 40 or over and are concerned about this, we can carry out a blood pressure check and if appropriate provide a monitor to measure your blood pressure over a 24 hour period, just as your GP might.
With our All Day, Every Day prescription service you can ORDER, and COLLECT your prescriptions 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. No more having to queue or wait around for home deliveries.
There is no charge for this service and you are not tied in.
HOW TO ORDER:
You can order your prescription using our app - it's free, easy to use and you can track your prescriptions progress from placing the order, to "ready at the pharmacy".
HOW TO COLLECT:
You can collect your readied prescription any time you like, day or night, 365 days a year. Simply join our service here and when your prescription is ready you'll be notified and be sent a pin number you can use to access your medicines from our automated collection point at the pharmacy.

You can of course also call in to the pharmacy to collect.
When you call the out of hours service 111, they may decide a pharmacy referral would benefit you more than a trip to A&E or another service.
The service supports those that need prescription medicines urgently as well as those that are unwell but can't easily see a doctor or were seeing a GP would not be appropriate.
Returning home from the hospital with new medicines can be daunting. Our pharmacist is here to help to put your mind at ease. We'll check your medicines when you return to ensure everything is as it should be and advise you on how best to take them so you get the most from them.
Do you forget to take your prescription medicines when you should? Perhaps you accidentally "double-up* because you can't remember if you took a dose or not.
Our blister packs (pill packs) can help. They organise your medication so you know exactly which medicine to take and when.
Speak to our pharmacy team for more advice.
If you find yourself without your regular prescribed medicines, and are unable to arrange a supply in time, our pharmacist may be able to help.
