Get the right health care this Bank Holiday

Some health services will be closed or operating at different hours on Monday to allow staff to pay their respects to Her Majesty The Queen during her funeral.

GP practices in Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent will be closed, as will many other services such as dentists, optometrists, and some pharmacies.

Anyone who needs urgent medical help should use NHS 111 online or call 111. They will help direct you to the most appropriate service, which could be a treatment centre, pharmacy, or an out-of-hours GP appointment.

A number of local pharmacies will also be open. As qualified healthcare professionals, they can offer clinical advice and over-the-counter medicines for a range of minor illnesses, such as coughs, colds, sore throats, tummy trouble and aches and pains.

If symptoms suggest it's something more serious, pharmacists have the right training to make sure you get the help you need.

Find which pharmacy is open by using the Find a Pharmacy feature on the NHS website.
