Firearms Licences

Patients need to obtain an application form from Herts, Beds and Cambridge Firearms Department and the GP will complete this. This is a chargeable form.

BMA guidance: www.bma.org.uk/firearms

We are able to supply a letter stating that as a practice we have a conscientious objection to signing Firearms Licences, which can be given to the police who can then organise your Firearms Licence. This will be free of charge. Please contact the surgery for more information.

Self certification sick (fit) note for less than 7 days

If you have been ill for 7 days or less you don’t need to see a Doctor. You can complete a Self Certification form yourself. However some employers insist on a Doctor’s note regardless. A Doctors note under these circumstances involves a charge of £15.
