Please remember to have prescriptions requested by Friday at the latest and have a lovely bank holiday weekend. Does that mean it's going to rain? 🙄
If you need urgent attention during this time please contact 111 or if experiencing chest pains, shortness of breath or anything you consider an emergency then call 999.
We are open again on Tuesday 5th May at 8.00 am.

Don't forget to collect your prescription ahead of the bank holiday weekend - this will avoid you running out of any regular medication.

Some pharmacies may not be open their regular hours this weekend - check ahead of visiting. Link in comments below ⬇️

From 24 March 2026, the NHS Cervical Screening Programme will start sending results requiring referral to colposcopy available through the NHS App.
This change follows the introduction of digital invitations, reminders and some results in 2025 and comprehensive user research which has demonstrated strong support for receiving screening results digitally.
For results requiring referral to colposcopy, if the NHS App message isn’t read within 24 hours, a letter will be sent as a failsafe. For all other communications, if the NHS App message isn’t read within 72 hours, a letter will be sent as a failsafe. Some participants may also receive an SMS notification.
Since June 2025, over 3 million invitations have been sent via NHS Notify, where 9 out of every 10 invitations have been delivered digitally, with the remainder being sent by post.

💊 Did you know large amounts of medicines are wasted in Cheshire and Merseyside each year? We need your help to reduce this.

💊 Check what medicines you have at home before you order your repeat prescriptions. If you have enough, only request the medicines you need this time.
You will still be able to order others again in future.
