Dear Patients
After consideration to our staff and patients, we are reinstating a mask policy in our practice, waiting room & consult rooms. Please understand there are many viruses around at the moment & if putting on a mask for a short time can stop someone getting sick we think it's worth it. If you don't wish to wear a mask while "waiting inside" we will supply chairs for you to sit outside. We thank you for supporting our health initiative. Regards Practice Manager.

March 17-23 is !

It’s a time to recognise and celebrate the unique strengths and perspectives of neurodivergent people.

Neurodivergence is a word that describes people whose brain is thought to work differently to typical (neurotypical) people. Some common forms of neurodivergence include:

- Autism
- ADHD
- Tourette Syndrome
- Dyslexia
- Dyscalculia
- Dysgraphia and Dyspraxia
- Developmental Coordination Disorder

Not everyone takes on information in the same way, which is why it's important for all of us to be aware of who we are chatting with and think about the best way for us to make them feel heard and supported.

Working alongside the Su***de Response Project, we’ve developed resources on how to have an R U OK? conversation with your neurodivergent friends, family members and colleagues who might be struggling with life's ups and downs.
