Find Your NHS Number
Your NHS number is a 10 digit number, like 485 777 3456.
You do not need to know your NHS number to use NHS services, but it can be useful to have it.
The NHS.uk website has a useful service tool you can use to find your NHS number, visit that page by clicking on this link.
If you cannot get your NHS number online you can find it on any letter from the NHS like a prescription or appointment letter.
