Child Registration (<16yrs)
Please provide proof of identity and address for each child. We request sight of each child’s birth certificate and their parent’s identification to match against the child’s birth certificate. An adult with parental responsibility should be registered at the same practice with the child. We do not require the child to be present at registration if it is not convenient for them to attend.

Temporary Residents.
Please note that requests for repeat medication should be obtained from your registered GP and a prescription sent electronically to a local pharmacy.
If you need to see a GP for an acute condition whilst staying temporarily within our catchment area, please attend the surgery in person to complete our temporary registration form. Please provide photographic ID and proof of the address within our catchment area that you are staying at (e.g. if staying with a friend or relative please provide a recent utility bill confirming their address).
Doctors lists
Our reception staff will inform you which doctors' lists are open and you may express a preference for registering with a particular doctor.
We do our best to accommodate your wishes but please be aware that we cannot register you with a doctor whose list is closed.
We do encourage families to use the same doctor where possible. We feel this to be in your best interest.
