We've had more than 200 people attend our Emergency Department already today.

If your condition isn't life or limb-threatening, you may face a long wait as we prioritise our sickest patients.

If you feel you can, consider using your GP, a pharmacist or 111.nhs.uk.

Our Emergency Department is really busy this afternoon.

Please only attend if your condition is life or limb-threatening.

111.nhs.uk can provide advice for your symptoms, or your local pharmacist and GP can help with minor conditions.
