The NHS provides sickness certification only after seven continuous days of illness.  If you need a sick note to cover this period of sickness you should complete a Self-Certification (SC2) form which is available below.

If you are still ill after 7 days, please submit an Online Consultation to request a sick note from a Doctor.
