Hi All,
I am having a nightmare trying to source libre sensors. I called boots in Aberdeen who say the product is not licenced and have been told by the diabetic specialist nurse team in Grampian that they are not trained in this system and cannot help!!!! Totally frustrated. I had to order the sensors from the manufacturer in the end.
I have type 1 diabetes that has now caused renal failure. You would think that prevention was the best way forward.
Hi, I'm in Birmingham too, which area do you get your sensors from I have twins with T1, have to pay double. I've been getting them from boots fort centre at £57 each.Hi I’m from Birmingham and have been recently purchasing my sensors from Superdrug pharmacy at a cost of £35. Hope this helps
HiI have had some sensors on order with Abbot since 9th February but they are ON HOLD but after reading messages on another forum about them being available from Asda but before going there I went to Sainsburys and there is a Lloyds Pharmacy in the store. I ordered two sensors as they were a lot cheaper than ordering direct from Abbot. I have paid £46.36 each for them, that's with the VAT taken off and they should be delivered to the store in 3-5 days. I went to a smaller Lloyds Pharmacy nearer to me but they hadn't registered with Abbot but would let me know when they had and I would be able to order them from there, presumably at the same price. I didn't have to fill in any forms re theVAT. I had also been to Boots and was quoted a price of £63 and later worked out that they would cost £52.50 with the VAT taken off. Tesco Pharmacy only knew about testing strips etc. and the pharmacist didn't know that anyone buying products specifically for their "disability" like test strips are VAT free when there's plenty of information on the Inland Revenue website about who doesn't have to pay. It will be great to be able to order them locally and not have weeks and weeks to wait for them to be delivered but can pick them up at my leisure!

Superdrug on Chapel Market in Islington is selling them at £35.
Does seem to be a lottery. Superdrug in Catford quoted £57.85 and Superdrug at the Elephant and Castle didn’t seem to have heard of them.
