Hello and welcome to SAYNOTO0870.COM.

The first question to ask when looking for an alternative is usually is where are calls answered? I have set out some guidance instructions on this.


As for answering the question, I found this newspaper article which says:

Quote:
Gwent's five LHBs - Newport, Torfaen, Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly and Monmouthshire - have joined forces to fund a Gwent-wide out-of-hours service to be provided by Gwent Healthcare Trust.


It dates back to 2004, but the 0845 number is still the same, so it may well hold good that it is Gwent Healthcare Trust that answers calls to it.

Wikipedia says that it was abolished in 2009 and Aneurin Bevan Local Health Board took over functions and its website is here.

Contact details are:

Mamhilad House
Block A
Mamhilad Park Estate
PONTYPOOL
Torfaen
NP4 0YP

Telephone: 01873 732732
