School's out, support's not!

The festive season can be fun but they can also feel overwhelming. If you know a young person that needs support, help is just a call or text away.

Save these helplines. Share them. Use them.
Because support doesn’t take a holiday.

Local NHS services are extremely busy at the moment as flu and winter illnesses rise.

Please help us help you:

💉 Get your flu jab. It’s the best way to protect yourself and those around you.

🧼 Stop germs spreading. Wash your hands often, cover coughs and sneezes, stay home if you feel unwell, and use hand gel or masks when visiting hospitals or GP surgeries.

Let's all stay well this winter.

We still are holding Flu clinics, please contact us to see if you are eligible.

This week is Grief Awareness Week, and a chance to recognise how any type of loss can affect our wellbeing.

There’s no right or wrong way to feel — grief affects everyone differently.

Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that you experience during particular seasons or times of year. Depression is a low mood or loss of interest and enjoyment in things you usually do. It lasts for a long time and affects your everyday life.

If you have SAD, you'll experience depression during some particular seasons. Or you'll experience depression because of certain types of weather or temperature.

Experiencing SAD in the winter is more well known. But you may struggle more with summer months. SAD can include any depression with a seasonal pattern.

It's common to be affected by changing seasons and weather. Or to have times of year when you feel more or less comfortable. For example, you might find that your mood or energy levels drop when it gets colder or warmer. Or you may notice changes in your sleeping or eating patterns.

But if your feelings are interfering with your everyday life, it could be a sign that you have depression. And if they keep coming back at the same time of year, doctors might call this seasonal affective disorder (SAD). They might also call it 'seasonal depression' or 'depression with seasonal pattern'.

There has been a noticeable strain on the availability of parking spaces in our Surgery car park in recent months. This is now causing some patients to be late for their appointments.

Therefore, we would like to take this opportunity to politely remind everyone that our car park is only for patients who are attending the Surgery for their appointment. Thank you for your co-operation and support.

Thank you

CMC Management
