Near Me / Attend Anywhere

Near Me / Attend Anywhere is a safe and secure NHS video calling platform that helps us to offer video call access to our services from wherever you are, without travelling – bringing care closer to you. 

Video consultations offer the chance to reduce your travel time, or time away from home, work or school to attend your appointment. Near Me / Attend Anywhere may also make it easier for you to have a member of your family or carer with you, who may not have been able to travel to your appointment with you.
