We’re honoured to have a tree at the Peterborough Cathedral Christmas Tree Festival this year. 💛✨

Families are invited to tie a ribbon on our tree in memory of a child of any age gone too soon — a gentle way to remember, reflect, and feel connected during the festive season.

If you’re visiting the festival, please feel welcome to add a ribbon and take a moment of remembrance. 🤍🎗️ Peterborough Cathedral

Today is Remembrance Day, also known as Armistice Day.

This day marks the end of the First World War, when a ceasefire was signed at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918.

As is tradition across the nation, we invite all team
members and patients to pause for a two-minute silence at 11:00 am, to honour the service and sacrifice of the Armed Forces community, past and present, and all those who have suffered because of war.

We encourage you to find a quiet space.

Please respect those who wish to take part in this act of remembrance.

Lest we forget.

***UPDATE 0955 - we have water! Normal services ***

We are aware that there is no water currently in Bourne.
We are informed that things should be back to normal within the hour. Unless you hear otherwise we should be running as normal.
Our only issue now is ensuring a full team as we understand local schools are closed for the day.

🎃Today is Halloween!🎃
It seems unfair to be poorly today if your children had been excited about trick or treating - so if you visit the practice today please send your children up to reception as our team have some treats for you.

👻Allergy advice - they will be HARIBO sweets containing lots of junk but very few allergens!
👻 If you would prefer us to offer a healthier or more suitable treat for your child please pass it to us discreetly before they 'Trick or Treat' us.
