How it works
Step 1: Book or walk in
Book online 24/7 or walk in during opening hours to request an NHS contraception consultation with one of our trained pharmacists.
Step 2: Clinical assessment
Your pharmacist will review your medical history, check your blood pressure if needed, and discuss which pill is right for you. All conversations are private and professional
Step 3: Get treated or referred
If suitable, you’ll receive your pill directly from the pharmacy. If a different method or further assessment is required, we’ll guide you to the right NHS service.
