We have a fully insured vehicle, which enables us to be able to deliver to a local destination of your choice.

All of our postal deliveries are made via the Royal Mail signed for service. This is normally 48 hours. Please allow enough time when ordering your medication from your GP, so that you do not have any shortages especially over a seasonal holiday.

Refrigerated items are sent via a refrigerated courier service, and a date is agreed in advance with the patient to make sure that they are in.

Controlled drugs are also sent via the Royal Mail tracked and signed for delivery service, and we also inform the patient when these items have been dispatched to make sure delivery can be accepted at the recipients address.

If the delivery of controlled drugs cannot be made the item will be returned back to the pharmacy

We have the facility to accept your prescriptions in an electronic manner, which can be sent directly from your local GP surgery.

The emergency contraceptive pill (morning after pill) – there are two types, Levonelle or ellaOne. You can get both Levonelle and ellaOne free of charge from: 

• contraception clinics
• most sexual health or genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinics
• most NHS walk-in centres and minor injuries units 
• most GP surgeries
• some hospital accident and emergency (A&E) departments 

After consultation with a pharmacist you can buy emergency contraception from our pharmacy. Levonelle can be taken within 72 hours (three days) of having unprotected sex, but it's most effective if taken within 12 hours of having unprotected sex. Prices vary, but it's likely to cost around £25. You need to be 16 or over to buy Levonelle. Girls under 16 can get Levonelle, but only with a prescription from their doctor.

ellaOne can be taken within 120 hours (five days) of having unprotected sex, but it's most effective if taken as soon as possible after having unprotected sex. Prices vary, but it's likely to cost around £35. ellaOne can be sold to under 16s without a prescription.
