Two are listed as open on Sundays: Boots in the Wellington Centre (11am to 4pm) and the Tesco Instore Pharmacy (10am to 4pm). None of the profiles shows opening after 8pm. Bank holiday hours are not shown on the profiles, so check before you go.
If you need a pharmacy outside these hours, the NHS 111 service can tell you what is open. You can also use the NHS Find a pharmacy service, which shows hours for a postcode.
Pharmacy First
Under the NHS Pharmacy First service, most pharmacies can supply prescription medicine for some conditions without a GP appointment. The NHS lists:
- impetigo (aged 1 and over)
- infected insect bites (aged 1 and over)
- earache (aged 1 to 17)
- sore throat (aged 5 and over)
- sinusitis (aged 12 and over)
- urinary tract infections (women aged 16 to 64)
- shingles (aged 18 and over)
Outside those age ranges the pharmacist can still give advice and suggest over-the-counter treatments, but you may need to see a GP. The NHS advises contacting the pharmacy before you visit, as not every pharmacy offers every service. Pharmacists can also advise on coughs, colds, aches and pains, and on how to use your medicines. They will tell you if you need to see a GP.
Online-only pharmacies
Integro Pharmacy and Home County Pharmacy appear on nhs.uk as online-only pharmacies, with no shop address on their profiles, so they are not included above.
