Pharmacy premises must exhibit a notice, based on information provided by NHS England, at times when the premises are not open. Where practicable the notice should be legible from outside the pharmacy premises, specifying the addresses of other NHS pharmacies and the days on which and times which drugs and appliances may be obtained from those addresses (The National Health Service (Pharmaceutical and Local Pharmaceutical Services Regulations 2013 Schedule 4, Part 3 paragraph 23(4)b).
The pharmacy opening hours across the Midlands region can also be accessed by patients and healthcare professionals at NHS England — Midlands » Bank Holiday pharmacy opening times and follow the drop down menus for the correct area. Alternatively, the opening hours for Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent pharmacies can be found at Community pharmacy – Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent, ICS
A downloadable sheet of the opening hours of pharmacies across the whole Midlands region can be found at Bank Holiday Update Christmas and New Year 2024-25 Midlands. Please note, this is correct at time of upload but if changes are made these will be reflected on the Midlands link above.
Pharmacy contractors are expected to have updated their own NHS UK and DoS profiles. If DoS Profile has not been updated, pharmacies will need to request emergency profiling changes by the DoS team by phoning 0300 0200 363.
