Next week you might notice that the team look slightly different to usual. That's because we are taking part in a World Book Day fundraiser to raise money in support of the Colchester & Ipswich Hospital Charity.

We will also be holding a small book sale in reception at Abbey Field Medical Centre across the week, so do feel free to pop in and bring some pennies!
