Remember as well as them only lasting 12 months (or six in some cases)
you also will have to enter the country within that 12 month period.
In London medicals cost from £110-£200. Have heard some other areas of
the country can be more pricey.
Police checks take around 3-4 weeks to come through. (we downloaded the
form and then just took it into the local police station).
