Dear Parents and Carers,

As winter approaches, we would like to take this opportunity to inform you about some valuable NHS services available to support you and ensure your child has access to the appropriate care when needed.

Pharmacy First
The Pharmacy First service allows you to visit a community pharmacy for assistance with minor illnesses or to obtain an urgent supply of medication. You can either be referred to or walk into a participating pharmacy for help. Please refer to the attached flyer for information on the five common conditions affecting children that this service can assist with.

Healthier Together App
The Healthier Together app is a convenient resource for parents and carers, offering guidance to help you keep your child safe and healthy. It also provides information to help you decide on the appropriate steps if your child is unwell. The app is easy to download and highly recommended for quick access to trusted healthcare advice.

We hope these resources will be helpful for you and your family this winter. For more details, please refer to the attached flyer, and feel free to contact us with any questions.
