When diagnosed early, nine in ten people survive bowel cancer. That’s why this , we're helping raise awareness of the disease, so everyone has the best chance of an early diagnosis.

Knowing the symptoms is important to help spot bowel cancer early. The earlier it’s found, the more treatable it’s likely to be.

🌟 High Intensity Use Lead – Be Part of Something New in Lincolnshire! 🌟

We’re looking for two full-time Key Workers to join Trent Care Primary Care Network, covering Gainsborough, Saxilby and Hibaldstow.

Do you believe people deserve the right support to live their best lives?
Are you the kind of person who listens, connects, and wants to make a real difference?
Have you been waiting for the right role to help change how we support our communities?

This is it. 🙌

We’re a group of five GP practices working together to do things differently. Too often, people turn to urgent or emergency care when what they really need is someone who can take the time to understand what’s really going on — that’s where you come in.

These are non-clinical roles, so we’re not looking for a specific background — we’re looking for you: your compassion, curiosity, and determination to help people find better ways forward.

Come and be part of the change. 💙

📢 Update on Cervical Screening Results

From 24 March 2026, if your cervical screening result requires a referral to colposcopy, you’ll be able to see it on the NHS App.

Here’s how it works:
📱 If you have the NHS App, you’ll get a notification there first.
✉️ If you don’t read it within 24 hours, a letter will be sent as a backup.
📩 Some patients may also receive an SMS notification.
📬 If you don’t have the NHS App, your result will be sent by post.

What you can do:
✅ Download the NHS App and enable notifications to get your results faster: www.nhs.uk/nhs-app

💬 If you have questions, speak to your sample taker or GP practice.

This change is designed to make it quicker and easier to receive your results safely.

💊 Did you know? You may be able to get contraception directly from your local pharmacy.

The NHS Pharmacy Contraception Service allows you to access advice and certain types of contraception directly from a pharmacist – without needing to see a GP first.

Through participating pharmacies, you may be able to:
• Start the contraceptive pill
• Continue your regular oral contraception
• Access emergency contraception (the morning after pill)

The service is free on the NHS, and consultations take place privately with a trained pharmacist.

This service helps make contraception more accessible and convenient, and may also reduce the need for a GP appointment for routine contraceptive care.

You can find out more here:
🔗https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/pharmacies/find-a-pharmacy-offering-contraceptive-pill-without-prescription/

If you have questions about contraception options that are not pill-based, please speak to your GP or local sexual health clinic.

Telephone calls are being answered by our other practice sites. We are operating with limited capacity, so waiting times may be longer than usual. Please bear with us.

We are working closely with our provider to resolve the issue and will provide updates as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Unfortunately, our internet services remain down despite ongoing work by our service provider, who has been working overnight for the past three nights to restore connectivity.

Due to this continued outage, we are still unable to operate the surgery on site today, as we do not have access to our clinical systems, patient records, or booking systems. This means we are unable to safely see patients in person at this time.

Telephone calls are being answered by our other practice sites. Please be aware that we are operating with limited capacity, so waiting times may be longer than usual. We kindly ask for your patience while our teams support patients as safely and effectively as possible.

Please be assured that this situation is not taken lightly. We are working closely with our provider to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and will share further updates as soon as more information becomes available.
