Appointments
This Practice has remained open throughout the pandemic, providing face to face appointments where necessary. Telephone and other remote consultations have been and will continue to be, undertaken as clinically indicated to reduce the number of people coming into the surgery and subsequently reduce the chances of spreading Cornavirus.
Please be reassured that should you need a face to face appointment, one will be offered to you. -
Face Coverings
From 24th July the rules regarding the wearing of face coverings changes. This mandate is advised to protect our community and we encourage you to use them.
The Government guidance suggests there is NO requirement for evidence for exemption. It should be sufficient for someone to declare that they are eligible for an exemption direct with the person questioning them (eg bus driver, shop assistant).
General Practices are therefore NOT required to provide letters of support for those who fall under the list of exemptions, or to those who do not fall under the list of exemptions. For the latest Government guidance please click here

Staying Safe in the Heat
Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot for too long, there are health risks.
In England, there are on average 2000 heat related deaths every year. If hot weather hits this summer, make sure it does not harm you or anyone you know.

Children Returning to School
We are aware that some parents might be understandably anxious about the Government’s recent announcement, advising that children of a certain age return to school in the week commencing 1st June 2020. GPs are unfortunately not in a position to provide individual risk assessments or letters to a child, in order to confirm their suitability (or otherwise) to return to school. Please click here for further information.

Face Coverings
It is now recommended that ALL patients should wear a face covering to the surgery, at the surgery, and during consultations. This is in line with Government advice about face covering in public spaces where social distancing is difficult.
A cloth mask or scarf is sufficient as long as it is secure and covers both your nose and mouth. If you have a medical condition which makes this difficult to tolerate, please mention this when you book your appointment and when you arrive.
We will continue to undertake as many appointments remotely as possible but if you do have to visit the surgery, your co-operation in keeping us all as safe as possible is appreciated.
