Medi2cert, a new premium medical form and certificate service from Medi2data, has officially launched for consumers across the UK. To introduce this game-changing service to the shooting community, we attended the Great British Shooting Show on 14th-16th February 2025, bringing our Firearms Medical Certification service to a wider audience.
What is a Firearms Medical Certificate?
To legally own a firearm or shotgun in the UK, individuals must obtain a Firearms Medical Certificate. This is a mandatory report from a GP confirming whether the applicant has any relevant medical conditions that could impact their ability to own a firearm. This certificate also includes a thorough review of the individual’s medical records.
According to the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC), there are over 1.5 million licensed shotguns in the UK, making shotgun medical certificates among the most frequently requested forms. Given the increasing demand for these medical assessments, having a streamlined and reliable service like Medi2cert is essential for shooters looking to secure their licences without hassle.
Why choose Medi2cert for your firearms/shotgun medicals?
Securing a Firearms Medical Certificate often involves obtaining a GP letter, but many NHS GPs are reluctant to issue these reports. Medi2cert simplifies this process, ensuring applications are processed quickly and efficiently.
How Medi2cert stands out:
- NHS-Accredited Supplier: We’re proud to be the only provider of firearms/shotgun medicals that is accredited by the NHS, ensuring top-tier clinical governance and security standards. As part of the Medi2data group, Medi2cert benefits from the clinical governance frameworks that make Medi2data’s services market-leading.
- Fast and Reliable Service: Our streamlined application process combined with Medi2data’s current footprint within Primary Care and GP practices helps applicants obtain their certificates without unnecessary delays.
- Trusted by the Shooting Community: Our presence at the Great British Shooting Show 2025 reinforced our commitment to serving the needs of firearm and shotgun owners across the UK.
