WATCH | The GP led Gloucester Health Access Centre (GL1 2TZ) is open today (8am-8pm). Ring in advance on 01452 336290 to check appointment availability. If you have an urgent medical need, you can also click or call NHS 111

IMPORTANT | Specialist staff at the Emergency Depts. in Glos and Chelt are very busy today supporting those who are seriously unwell. Ill or injured, but not life threatening? - we can guide you on the best and most timely option to meet your needs #clickorcallfirst

WATCH | Minor health issue? Before contacting another NHS service, think Pharmacy First. Many pharmacies have extended hours and consultation rooms if you want to talk in private about symptoms. Pharmacists can advise on whether you need another NHS service
