The surgery will be migrating to a new computer system in November. To help ensure a smooth transition and to avoid any disruption to your medication, we kindly ask all patients to submit their prescription requests now.
To cover this period, we will be issuing two months of post-dated prescriptions. This will ensure you have the medication you need while we complete the migration process.

👶🛡️ Protect your child from serious illness - make sure they’ve had their MMR vaccine.

The MMR vaccine is the safest and most effective way to protect children against measles, mumps and rubella. These diseases can spread rapidly and could lead to serious complications.

Since the MMR vaccine was introduced in 1988, these illnesses have become rare thanks to this vaccine, but outbreaks still happen when not enough children are vaccinated.

💬 Not sure if your child is up to date? Contact your GP or visit our Vaccination Centre - it’s never too late to catch up.
