Cookie policy

Last updated: 23 June 2026

Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. This section explains which ones we use and how you can control them. We ask for your consent before using any non-essential cookies, and you can change your choice at any time.

Essential cookies

These are needed for the website to work and cannot be switched off. They include cookies set by our website platform to deliver pages securely, and a small amount of local storage we use to remember your cookie choice and, if you choose one, your preferred practice. These do not identify you personally.

Analytics cookies (only with your consent)

With your permission, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site, so we can improve it. These cookies collect information in an anonymised form, such as the pages you visit and how you arrived. They are only set if you accept analytics in the cookie banner.

Third-party content

Some pages include content from other services, which may set their own cookies:

  • Maps are provided using OpenStreetMap and, on some pages, Google Maps.

  • Find a practice and area tools use a postcode lookup service to locate your postcode.

These services are covered by their own privacy and cookie policies.

Managing cookies

You can accept or reject non-essential cookies using the banner when you first visit, and change your choice at any time through the cookie settings link. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may then not work as well.
