If you or a family member feel unwell this bank holiday weekend, here are some health care options to help you.....
The NHS 111 service is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. By calling 111 you'll speak with a trained advisor who will help you.

Pharmacies are a great source of help and advice if you feel unwell. You don't need an appointment to speak with the pharmacist and they could offer you over the counter medicine to help you get better.

Could you do us a favour this weekend?

We'd really appreciate it if you would spend a little time to check whether you have any NHS equipment at home that you no longer need.

The equipment we are keen to recover ranges from alternating air mattresses, which cost £1,650 each, to wheeled adjustable frames, which cost £12.70 each.

Whatever the equipment is, or whatever condition it might be in, it can be assessed and safety-tested before either being repaired and reused or alternatively, stripped down to be recycled.
