A number of pharmacies will be open on the upcoming Bank Holiday.

As qualified healthcare professionals, pharmacists can offer clinical advice and over the counter medicines for a range of minor illnesses.

Remember to stay at home if you have coronavirus (COVID-19) symptoms, no matter how mild.

Symptoms of coronavirus include:

• a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature)
• a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual).
• loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you’ve noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal

To protect others if you have symptoms, stay at home. Use the NHS 111 online coronavirus service to find out what to do.
