Catchment area

You can check if you are in our catchment area using the tool on this page.  

Find out which GPs you can register with on the NHS website.

We are currently accepting registrations from outside the catchment area, however, please read the important information below.

Important

Registering with a GP surgery outside your local area can affect the NHS services that you can access including:

• home visits and urgent care from your GP, including out of hours care
• community services, such as physiotherapy and midwife appointments

Ask us to explain any alternative arrangements for these services when you register.

You can register with the surgery via our NHS link.

It takes around 15 minutes to complete a registration. You need to complete the process in one session. If you are registering more than one person make sure to give yourself enough time.

You do not need your NHS number, but it could make registration easier.

You may be asked for:

• details of previous GP surgery
• basic health and medical information

Register Online

If you prefer to register using a paper form, please collect one from the surgery reception or alternatively download and print and complete the attached form and drop it off to us.

NEW REGISTRATION FORM

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.

As a parent, family member or carer, you may be able to access services for someone else. We call this having proxy access. We can set this up for you if you are both registered with us.

To requests proxy access, please collect a proxy access form from reception from 9am to 5pm.

Linked profiles in your NHS account

From 1st April 2015, practices are required to allocate all patients (including children) with a named accountable GP.

The named GP is responsible for the coordination and delivery of all appropriate services, where required based on clinical judgement, to each of their patients.

• Patients do not need to see their named GP when they book an appointment with the practice.
• Patients are entitled to choose to see any GP or nurse in the practice.
