❤️ NATIONAL BLOOD WEEK is here! It’s a chance for us – and the whole country - to say a massive thank you to everyone who donates.

Blood donors make up a huge volunteer force, saving the lives of strangers through your acts of kindness.

But we need more giving types to help!

To keep England’s blood supply secure, over 5,000 donations are required EVERY DAY.

However, fewer than 800,000 people donated last year, representing just 2% of the population.

📢 Do you know someone who could join our team of lifesavers? We want to try and reach 1 million active donors this year, so please share this post and tell your friends and family.

It only takes an hour to donate blood, but it could give someone else a lifetime.

❗️Important Patient Notice: Closure of Parrock Street Surgery

We’re writing to let you know that from Friday 30th May 2025, Parrock Street Surgery will no longer operate from its current building due to issues with the premises. Since taking on the care of patients registered there, we’ve worked to keep services running, but circumstances beyond our control mean we have been required to relocate.

From this date, all services will be provided at Gravesend Medical Centre.

There will be no disruption to your care.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Nicky Robins
Practice Manager
