British passport holder living in spain - travel to UK

My aunt is unwell and living on her own.  Her husband died last year.  We want to try to get her to UK.  Can anyone tell me if she can fly from Malaga to UK and what she needs.  She has residency papers and British passport.  I've tried researching but end up clicking and cicking and nothing seems to fit clearly.

  • just to be clear, she just wants to visit not move back permanently - at this stage.

    Not sure where you have been looking? She is free to travel from Spain to the UK, but will need to self-isolate for 10 days upon arrival, as Spain is not currently on the travel corridor list.

    If travelling for medical reasons, there could be difficulty getting NHS treatment except for emergencies.

    I don't think the OP's aunt is travelling for medical treatment; she would be better off seeking that from her local GP or hospital in Spain, which is likely to be far better provisioned than the NHS.
