About

What this service involves

If contraception has failed or wasn't used, emergency contraception is most effective when taken as soon as possible. You do not need to see a GP - we can help right here.

Our pharmacists consult privately, provide the appropriate medication free of charge under the NHS, and offer ongoing contraception advice if you want it.

What to expect

  • Free on the NHS in most cases
  • Fully confidential consultation
  • Medication issued the same visit when appropriate
  • Follow-up advice on ongoing contraception
