Did you know your GP surgery receives just 31p a day to care for you?
That is less than the cost of an apple or a few slices of bread.
GPs are doing their best with limited resources - please support us by using services wisely.

Norovirus is a stomach bug that causes diarrhoea & vomiting.
The average number of patients in hospital with norovirus each day last week rose to over 1,000 for the first time this winter.
It can spread very easily, but washing your hands frequently with soap & water is the best way to stop it spreading.
If you catch it, stay at home until two days after the symptoms stop. Do not visit hospitals, GP surgeries or care homes during this time.
