Another bank holiday weekend is coming up, so please consider that on Monday 28 May some health services – such as GP surgeries and pharmacies - may have reduced opening hours.
Take care of yourself this bank holiday by:
- Ensuring you have enough medication during this time.
- Planning routine GP appointments and checking operating/opening hours of your healthcare provider.
- Calling 111 or visiting your local pharmacist if you are feeling unwell, instead of waiting for the GP surgery to open again.
