With two bank holiday weekends coming up in May, it’s important to know where to go if you or someone else becomes unwell.

The council's website has this useful guide to bank holiday weekend health advice.

Feeling unwell


If you need medical advice quickly but your condition is not life threatening

If you think you need medical help or advice right now but it’s not life threatening, 111 online will direct you to the best place to get help for your symptoms.

You can also call 111, the NHS non-emergency number available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobiles.

When you call 111 you will speak to a highly trained health adviser supported by other healthcare professionals. They will ask you about your symptoms and advise what is best to do to get you help.
