Your visit
How a jab or a check works
Pick a time with the form below or call us. Flu jabs also run as walk-ins on weekday mornings.
In the quiet room we ask a few questions and you ask yours. It takes about five minutes.
Sleeve up, a few seconds, done. A blood pressure check is three readings, a minute apart.
We tell you what's normal afterwards and what isn't. If you'd like, we'll text you next season.
The counter
Skincare and vitamins, in glass you can refill
Bring back the jar and we'll fill it again. We keep the ranges small on purpose, so we know every one of them.
- Refill your own jar
- Fragrance-free ranges
- Vitamin D, October to March
- Sun care
- Baby care
- First aid

Questions
Things people ask us
Can't see yours? Call 01632 960 418 or ask for a callback below.
Do I need an appointment to talk to a pharmacist?
No. Come in whenever we're open. If you'd rather we called you, use the callback form and pick a time that suits you.
Is the flu jab free for me?
It may be, depending on your age and health. Book anyway and we'll check with you before the appointment. If it isn't free, it's £16.
What can you deliver?
Anything from the shop floor: vitamins, skincare, baby care, first aid and toiletries. Check your postcode above. Prescription items are arranged with the pharmacist in person.
Can I bring my own jar for a refill?
Yes, as long as it's clean and has a lid. We weigh it empty first, then fill it.
Is there somewhere private to talk?
Yes. The quiet room is behind the counter, with a door that closes. Just ask, there's no need to explain why.
What should I write in the forms?
Your name, a phone number and what you'd like to book or ask about. Please leave out medical details; we'll go through them with you in person.
