Noticeboard

With immediate effect in line with NHS Digital we no longer have a Fax Machine.

Practices have very limited information about the new vaccination programme. Further information will be made available in the fullness of time and we will contact you and update our website as soon as we know. Meantime please see details of Flu Vaccines Supplies under Latest News......j

Any patients who are seen in the Practice now need to wear a face covering or mask if asked to attend an appointment. During your visit, our Toilet facilities will not be available.

We are now offering a new Video Consultation Service and to use this service you will need to be registered for Patient Access. During these uncertain times, the best way to register for this service is by setting up online as below. If you are unable to do this you can download a form and return to us in the post or email.

Patient Guidance for Video Consultations

Please note any digital image submitted as part of an online consultation, will be stored within your clinical notes.

Patient Registration: If you are registering as a New Patient, you will need to complete a GMS1 (purple form) and a New Patient Form according to your age. We can not process any New Registrations without both of these forms.

Social Prescribing

Social Prescribing is a (non-medical) service that aims to help people improve both their health and wellbeing. It sees a broad range of people with differing social, emotional and practical needs, helping them access the right resources (e.g., groups, courses, activities, information, social connections, services, support, etc.) to meet those needs.

Social Prescribing Link Workers can support you to identify what is important to you and to set your own goals. They can then help you explore a range of options, such as groups, activities or services that can support you. Social Prescribing Link Workers go beyond simply providing information. They are able to listen, encourage you to try something new, help you find the right support and resources to meet your individual needs and make referrals for you, where necessary.

Claire Baker is our Social Prescribing Link Worker and you can refer yourself by:
