Out of Hours
If you need an urgent care contact point and are not able to contact the GP surgery you should contact NHS 111. You should use the NHS 111 service if you urgently need medical help or advice but it’s not a life-threatening situation.

You need medical help fast but it’s not a 999 emergency

You think you need to go to A&E or need another NHS urgent care service.

You don’t know who to call or you don’t have a GP to call.

You need health information or reassurance about what to do next.

For less urgent health needs, contact your GP when back open or local pharmacist in the usual way.
