We had a fantastic turnout for today’s Children’s CPR and choking training — thank you to everyone who joined us.

Your feedback was brilliant, and we’re excited to run more sessions soon. Many of you asked for workshops on common childhood illnesses, fever, immunisations, nosebleeds, and minor injuries — so keep an eye out for upcoming Zoom sessions.

We’d also love to know what you want next! It doesn’t have to be child-related. For example, we have evening menopause group sessions coming up with Dr Meyyappan (get in touch if you’d like to book a spot).

Your ideas help shape what we offer — so please share them!

Antiobiotic Awareness Week.

As we head into winter we all experience spikes in coughs, colds and sore throats which are caused by viruses. Antibiotics will not help with a viral illness and the vast majority of patients, young and old will heal on their own.

Please consider becoming and antibiotic gaurdian- the link explains more about antibiotics and the problems arising with antibiotic resistance. We need to protect antibiotics for those that truly need them.

Please see the comments box for information regarding childhood illnesses and how to manage these, including when to seek support.
