Some advice regarding leaving Spain and returning to the UK please

What is the proceedure for returning your health cards, residencia cards and removing your details from the padron. Eg is this done via the Town Hall and at your doctors. Any advice would be appreciated

you will also need to register with the tax office in the UK and deregister with Spain if you have been paying tax so need to get assistance from someone like Tim Taplin at Indalo Partners in Parque Commercial.  You also need to register with a doctor in the UK with your medical notes if you have any problems they won't have any access to the information held on the system here.  The townhall will cancel your padron but you need to deregister from the residencia and any traffic so use a gestora to assist you.

Apparently on returning to live in the U.K. you will be entitled to NHS services if you are a U.K. pensioner - so says the S1 letter issued by the DWP. But if under pension age you will need to reside in the U.K. for at least three months before you can get anything other than emergency NHS treatment.

I am piggy backing someone else's thread here, but wondering whether anyone has any experience of using Indalo Partners / Tim Taplin?    I am thinking of using them, but haven't found much commentary about them online, good or bad.
