🚨 The ambulance service and wider health service is under a lot of pressure today. As a result, you may experience a delay in getting an ambulance. Please only call 999 in a life-threatening emergency or https://t.co/Q9820lk3SO for non-urgent concerns.

We currently have a high number of sick patients in our A&E who need our help. We are doing everything we can to see and treat patients as quickly as possible but some may face a long wait. Please bear with us and be kind to our staff.

Make sure you go to the most appropriate place for your health needs. The best thing to do is use NHS 111 online as the first port of call for any urgent health needs and continuing to only use 999 or attend the Emergency Department if it is a life-threatening emergency.
