Our local pharmacy, Jardines, is ready and running the Pharmacy First initiative.

This allows you to go direct to the pharmacy for 7 key conditions. They are now allowed to provide antibiotics if appropriate, for certain conditions.

Our reception team and duty doctor might therefore direct you there if most appropriate.

Please see this government blog on the scheme for more information:
