How to Register

You do not need proof of ID to register with a GP, but it might help of you have one or more of the following:

• passport
• birth certificate
• HC2 certificate
• rough sleepers’ identity badge
• hostel or accommodation registration or mail forwarding letter

If you’re homeless, you can give a temporary address, such as a friend’s address, a day centre or the GP surgery address.

If you need help registering with our Surgery

If you need help registering or filling in forms, call the GP surgery and let us know.

• You could also ask for help from:
• local organisations – for example if you’re homeless you could ask a centre that supports homeless people
• Citizens Advice
• your local Healthwatch
