It is now no longer necessary for referrals for vasectomies to go through a GP. Instead, patients are able to self-refer for a vasectomy, by doing the following:

• Visit the ‘Provide Wellbeing’ website, to download and complete an application
  form – Vasectomy Self-Referral Form
• E-mail the application form to provide.wellbeing@nhs.net
• Await a consultation appointment following internal triage.

Following a pilot phase, Hertfordshire’s Neurodiversity Support Hub is being rolled out across Hertfordshire thanks to funding from both Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) and the NHS. The Hub has initially been funded until the end of March 2025 and ADD-Vance have been commissioned to run the Hub, which is open Monday–Friday 9am–1pm.

The Hub is staffed by experts with experience; they can answer any questions to do with Neurodiversity, however big or small, or just be a listening ear. Please note, no diagnosis is required to access the support and the helpline is open to parents, carers and professionals.

The Hub can be contacted by phone on 01727 833963, with an answerphone facility for out of hours, or by email at supporthub@add-vance.org
