In line with social distancing requirements, the onsite Boots store will be limiting the sale of non-essential retail. Food and over the counter medicines will still be availble to purchase. 

The number of people allowed in store at any one time is limited, and therefore you may be asked to queue outside the store.

These changes are necessary as we work with Boots towards safely increasing the capacity of outpatient prescriptions through the store.

We are grateful for your co-operation as these changes are implemented.
