If you are moving outside of the practice catchment area you will need to re-register at another surgery. To find a surgery close to you visit the NHS Website. It is particularly important to re-registerto ensure you have access to a full range of medical services such as community nursing support.

It is useful to know if you are, or have recently become, a carer. It may mean you can access treatment such as flu vaccinations at the same time as the person you care for. You do not need to be in receipt of government support in order to qualify as a carer.
