I used to use the lancet device that came with this meter and the lancets that fit it were called 'Medisense thin lancets' and come in a box of 200. Unless they have change the lancet device these should fit.

If all else fails, Boots will know which lancets they use, although you are probably better off going through their web site than the pharmacies.
