Parking at Adelaide Street site

We would genuinely love to provide parking for all of our patients, but unfortunately we don't even have enough parking for staff most of the time.

If you do not have a valid permit, please do not park anywhere around the building as you may well receive a ticket, even if you are here for an appointment.

The issuing of parking tickets is managed by an external company and the practice does not have the authority to have them rescinded.

There is on-street parking on South King Street and a large car park across the road, accessible via Leopold Grove.

When We Are Closed

You should use the NHS 111 service if you urgently need medical help or advice but it's not a life-threatening situation.

Call 111 if:

• you need medical help fast but it's not a 999 emergency
• you think you need to go to A&E or need another NHS urgent care service
• you don't know who to call or you don't have a GP to call
• you need health information or reassurance about what to do next

Alternatively, you may wish to visit a local pharmacist.

If a health professional has given you a specific phone number to call when you are concerned about your condition, continue to use that number.

For immediate, life-threatening emergencies, continue to call 999.
