Opening Hours - Update

The Surgery building is open between 08:00 and 18:00 Monday to Friday. Like the rest of the Practices in our Primary Care Network we have a sub-contract with ELM GP Alliance to provide cover between 18:00 and 18:30 and this has been the case for a number of years. ELM have recently made some changes to how this service is accessed (previously via 111) - details below.

We are proud to have been accredited as a Veteran-Friendly GP Practice since the scheme’s inception in 2019. If you are an armed forces veteran, please tell us. A Veteran is anyone who has served in the British Armed Forces (Regular or Reserve) for at least one day and this also includes any member of the Merchant Marine who has served in a war zone. This includes crew from convoys in World War 2 and more recently in the Falklands conflict and Gulf Wars. By telling us that you’re a veteran, we can make sure that you get the care you need when you need it most.

Patients who have been affected will be contacted to rearrange appointments and we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. The Practice will be busier than usual over the next few days so please consider whether your query can wait, try to keep our phone lines free for vulnerable patients who need them most and be kind to our staff who are doing their best to help you.

Colleagues from our OPTIMISE cancer prehabilitation programme have partnered with local training group, Boro Runners to offer a Run, Walk and Talk group for people affected by cancer.

The group is open to anyone who is currently preparing for treatment, going through treatment, recovering from treatment and living with and beyond cancer and is led by qualified coaches and run leaders.

The first event was held on Saturday 25 October and runs every Saturday at Stewarts Park from 10.30am to 11.30am.

Personalised cancer care prehabilitation lead Chloé McMurray said: "We are so grateful to be collaborating with Boro Runners who are running these free sessions for any person affected by cancer, including friends and family.

"We want to encourage people to participate at any stage of the cancer pathway, whether this be high suspicion, diagnosis, during treatment, recovery or living with and beyond cancer - all abilities are welcome.

Our first session on Saturday was such a lovely, warm friendly experience with lots of laughter and we hope to continue to grow the community and support people to be more active and improve wellbeing on every step of this journey.'
