🧥 Coat Bank – Helping Keep Everyone Warm This Winter

We are currently running a Coat Bank at some of our other surgeries to help ensure that no one goes cold this winter.

We are accepting donations of unwanted coats at both our Finningley and Bawtry sites.

If you have any coats you no longer need, please drop them off at reception during opening hours.

All we ask is that donations are:
• Clean
• In good condition
• Wearable

Your kindness can make a real difference to someone in need this winter — thank you for your support! ❤️

Do you know your numbers this September❓

Every September, blood pressure checks are taken by thousands to prevent heart attacks and strokes. ❤️‍🩹

Know Your Numbers! Week reaches those who have high blood pressure and don’t know it, so they can get the treatment and support they need to bring it under control.

Ask at the reception desk in surgery for a token to use the pod or book in with our nursing team for a BP check. 👩‍⚕️

Today marks World Su***de Prevention Day, whilst we don’t differentiate our mission statement for any day of the week, today means that people around the UK & the world stand up and speak up as well as bring attention to the battle we are fighting to break the stigma around mental health 🗣️

Never underestimate the power of a conversation.❤️

Here at Andys Man Club we see everyday as su***de prevention day, but today is an extra reminder to check in on those around you. Even the ones who seem ‘okay’.

📢 Patient Notice

We would like to sincerely apologise to all patients whose appointments were cancelled or relocated today.

Unfortunately, one of our medical fridges experienced an electrical fault, and the fire brigade was called as a precaution. We’re pleased to confirm that no one was injured, and there was no damage to the surgery apart from the fridge itself.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. The Bawtry site will be open as normal tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience and support.

— The Mayflower Medical Practice Team
