Information Portal

Justvisiting is primarily concerned with keeping people in contact with each other at a potentially difficult time. We are not medical, financial or support professionals and cannot provide answers to the many questions that are no doubt swirling around in your head. However, we do know a lot of people and organisations who can.

Click on the question that most closely matches what information you are looking for to reveal a set of links to external sites that could help you. Don't be surprised to see the same organisation appear under more than one heading. Many of these external sites cover a range of topics.

Where possible, depending on your selection of question, we have tried to take you directly to the most appropriate page of the external site.

All the links will open in a new window so you will not need to leave justvisiting.com.


1.Find a hospital or other medical service?

From Hospitals to G.P.s to Pharmacies these links will provide you with the address, phone number and other information for medical services and facilities, both NHS and Private in the UK.
