If you need to contact a doctor out of hours please telephone 111.
NHS 111
NHS 111 has been introduced to make it easier for you to access local NHS healthcare services in England. You can call 111 when you need medical help fast but it’s not a 999 emergency. NHS 111 is a fast and easy way to get the right help, whatever the time.
NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones. Read more here.
Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
CATCH app
There is a new free CATCH app (which stands for Common Approach to Children’s Health) provides NHS-approved, highly-localised health advice and support for parents and carers of children aged 0-5.
The app is designed to empower you with the information necessary to decide when your child needs medical treatment or when self care is more appropriate
