Esso petrol stations opening times
Esso is the biggest petrol station brand in the UK with over 1,200 locations.
Once again Esso garages are often open 24 hours a day, but the exact hours can vary depending on which one you go to — including over the bank holiday.
You can use Esso’s station finder tool on the Esso website to see which forecourts are open when.
You’ll also be able to see the other amenities it has, like toilets, food and drinks or an ATM.
Shell petrol stations opening times
Shell petrol stations are a familiar site for any one hitting the road.
The energy giant has over 1,000 forecourts across the country.
Many of these are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, meaning motorists won’t have to drive by a closed pump most of the time.
Shell garage hours can vary though, so it’s worth checking ahead if one near you is open when you need it.
Some garages are open from 6am until 10pm over the bank holiday.
You can find your nearest Shell petrol station using its store locator tool on the Shell website.
Are doctors open on the late May bank Holiday?
Like most public services, GP practices have different opening times over the early May bank Holiday.
As this is a bank holiday, surgeries will most likely be closed. Some surgeries might operate an out-of-hours service, but these can vary from practice to practice.
If you phone your nearest surgery, the answering machine will give you advice on how to get hold of an out-of-hours doctor.
Many walk-in centres will also be open as normal on the early May bank Holiday.
However they could be busy, meaning you might spend a significant portion of your day waiting in the waiting room. With this in mind, it is always best to call ahead and check the opening times before you travel.
Always check to see if your local practice has shared any information online. Or you can phone up ahead of time.
Are pharmacies open over the late May bank holiday?
Anyone who has to take medications regularly will tell you how important it is to ensure your supply doesn’t run out.
It is best practice to be prepared for any and all situations, so if you know your refill is coming up it is advised to visit your pharmacy before the bank holidays.
There is no set rule on pharmacies staying open over the bank holidays.
The late May bank holiday falls on Monday May 27, 2024.
However, the NHS website has provided a list of pharmacies that remain open.
These open for limited hours in order to help customers get any essential medicines or treatments.
