Community pharmacies like this one generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, supply over-the-counter medicines and offer everyday health guidance, though the services available can differ from one branch to another. It is always a good idea to ring ahead or check before visiting to confirm what this pharmacy provides. Opening hours and contact details are shown further down this page. It is also worth knowing that since 2018 it has been lawful for specialist doctors in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through dedicated clinics rather than community pharmacies.
