Pharmacy First

Pharmacy First is a service commissioned by the Strategic Planning and Performance Group (SPPG) and is free of charge for patients.

If you have an everyday health condition, you can use the Pharmacy First service to get advice and treatment from a local pharmacist, without waiting for an appointment to see your GP. Many community pharmacies have longer opening hours including weekends and holidays, making them more accessible than a GP surgery.

You can call into the pharmacy for a private consultation with the pharmacist without needing to make an appointment.
