Hi and welcome to the forum
@Bobbycoll . All meters are fairly simple to use, if you get puzzled by anything after reading the instructions you can always ask here.
Here’s some info on UK meters, and to be clear I have no commercial connections with any of the companies mentioned.
Home Health have recently bought out the Gluco Navii, but I haven’t heard any reviews yet, links to strips and the meter:

There are also discount codes for when you come to buy more strips - "navii5" and "navii10" will give you 20% off purchases of 5 packs of strips and 25% off 10 packs of strips respectively.
Disclaimer, I haven’t used the discount codes that I have quoted recently so I don’t know if they are still current.
Spirit Healthcare have a meter called the Tee2 + found here:

with the strips found here:

Some members have got a free Tee2+ by phoning up to order, with a large order of strips they often throw the meter in for free:

With more expensive strips is their Caresens Dual which I currently use, this one has the advantage of glucose and ketone testing in one machine, it’s to be found here:

Don’t forget to check the box if you have pre diabetes or diabetes so you can buy VAT free. (for all meters and strips)
