Our top tips for a healthy and happy Christmas:
• Please order any repeat prescriptions you require in time to ensure you have adequate provision over the Christmas and New Year period.
• Be prepared for common health problems by keeping a well-stocked medicine cabinet at home. Speak to your pharmacist if you're not sure what you need.
• Use NHS111 if you need medical help but it’s not an emergency. NHS111 offers an online service at 111.nhs.uk or you can call them by dialling 111.
• Get your flu, Covid and RSV vaccinations if eligible.

For some people, symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) can feel more noticeable or harder to manage during the winter.

But small things can help:

🔵 try some physical activity – anything that gets you moving
🔵 make the most of natural light – getting outside or sitting near windows
🔵 plan for tougher days – shifting stressful tasks or building in more rest

There’s also treatment available if you’re finding things really tough – such as light therapy, talking therapies or medication.
