👁️ Prescription Review Update – Dry Eye Treatments

We routinely review prescriptions to ensure patients continue to receive safe, effective, and value-driven care.

For dry eye symptoms, most lubricating eye drops and treatments are readily available over the counter from pharmacies and supermarkets. These options are often more cost-effective than an NHS prescription and allow quicker access to treatment, while also supporting the sustainability of NHS resources.

For further information, please see the NHS guidance on dry eyes here:
https://www.nhs.uk/symptoms/dry-eyes/

If you have any questions or need advice on suitable products, your local pharmacy will be happy to support you.

Sexual Violence Awareness Week is a time to highlight support for anyone affected by sexual assault or sexual violence, including women and men. 💜

Help is available if you have experienced abuse, are worried about someone else, or need advice on staying safe. Confidential support, medical care, forensic services and sexual health checks (including STI testing) can be accessed through specialist services.

You may also see emergency alert test notifications on your phone during national testing. Opting out can help some people keep phones hidden and safe, as these alerts override silent and do not disturb settings.

You are not alone, and support is there when you are ready. 🕊️🩺✨

Turning on NHS App notifications is a simple way to help the NHS save money while staying informed about your healthcare. 💙

Notifications can remind you about appointments, test results, prescriptions and important updates, helping reduce missed appointments and unnecessary letters or texts.

Using the NHS App makes it easier to manage your health in one place, saves time for NHS services and helps resources be used where they are needed most. Making this small change can have a big impact for you and the NHS. 📱

Regular exercise plays a vital role in maintaining both physical and mental health, and it does not have to mean spending hours in the gym. Being active can help reduce the risk of long-term conditions, improve mood and boost energy levels, while also supporting independence as we age.

Examples of regular exercise include:
🚴‍♂️ Brisk walking or cycling to improve heart health
💪 Strength exercises like carrying shopping or resistance training to build muscle
🧘‍♀️Balance and flexibility activities such as yoga or stretching to reduce falls and stiffness
💙 Low-impact activities like swimming or chair-based exercises, especially later in life

Staying active in ways you enjoy makes it easier to keep exercise as part of everyday life.

⏰ Reminder – Hook Surgery Closed Today

Our Hook Surgery is closed today (Wednesday 21 January 2026) to allow essential electrical safety works to take place within the building.

These urgent works involve upgrading the main electrical supply and, for safety reasons, there will be a full loss of power and IT systems. As a result, no services are available from the Hook site today.

To maintain continuity of care, all clinical and administrative services are operating from the Hartley Wintney branch surgery, with some services delivered remotely where appropriate.

All pre-booked appointments will continue as planned. Patients affected by a change in location will be contacted directly by the practice.

Please continue to contact us via eConsult or 01256 762125

Thank you for your understanding while these important works are carried out.
