I get my blood taken by Superdrug.

A map of their available clinics can be found here :

Do a search for "Superdrug nurse clinics".

You could phone up your local NHS hospitals phlebotomy department and ask if they take blood for private testing, and ask how much it costs. My local hospital would do it some years ago but I haven't asked them for several years.

I used a home visit from a nurse. £25 or £35 for an early appointment. Let me know if you want me to PM you her details. She visited me in London, E4 - on the border with Essex.
