My toddler hasnt been eating properly since Saturday. She has hardly had more than a few spoonfuls.
Come yesterday hardly drinking too..not had this before.
Not even ice lollies, yoghurts which she usually laps up. Its worrisome
Any advice or would it just be more advisable to ring gp?

I would seek advice now. If you cant get gp appt call 111.

Defo seek medical advice. The hot weather we are having needs children to drink plenty of fluid.

Call 111 if you can't get through to the surgery this morning. At real risk of dehydration.

Do you have a calpol syringe thingy? I would start syringing water in slowly

Ask for advice now. Do they use a straw yet? Sometimes a curly straw (or any straw) can get results

Immediately
