Make sure your medicine cabinet is well-stocked this bank holiday weekend.
The upcoming bank holiday weekend, 28 August is expected to be a busy time for the NHS. With a few simple steps, people can save time and avoid an unnecessary trip to A&E.
The NHS is encouraging people to collect repeat prescriptions and stock up on self-care essentials like painkillers, plasters, and indigestion remedies ahead of the bank holiday.
If you need medical help, some pharmacies will remain open to treat minor illnesses, such as diarrhoea, a runny nose, a cough, or a headache.
