🚫🍷 ALCOHOL-FREE DAYS – YOUR BODY WILL THANK YOU! 🍹💪
BMG patients, thinking of cutting down on alcohol?
Swapping some of your usual drinks for low or zero percent alternatives is a great way to reduce both alcohol AND calorie intake! 🙌✨
🧠 There's no completely risk-free level of drinking, but here are the UK’s low-risk guidelines:
✅ No more than 14 units per week (men & women)
📆 Spread them over at least 3 days
🚫 Include alcohol-free days every week!
Why it matters? Regular heavy drinking can increase the risk of:
⚠️ Cancers (mouth, throat, liver, bowel, breast + more)
⚠️ Stroke & heart problems 💓
⚠️ Liver disease & nerve damage
⚠️ Mental health issues 🧠
⚠️ Weight gain ⚖️
⚠️ Vascular dementia
📏 Know your units!
🥃 1 shot of spirit (25ml, 40%) = 1 unit
🍷 Small glass of wine (125ml, 12%) = 1.5 units
🍺 Pint of beer (3.6%) = 2 units
🍾 1 bottle of wine (750ml, 13.5%) = 10 units!
💡 Top tip: Look for 0% or low-alcohol drinks – they taste great and help you stay on track!
Your health, your choice. Start by making just one or two days alcohol-free a week – your body and mind will thank you! 💚🌟

💊 Does this phrase sound familiar- " BMG, can you mark my request for my repeat prescription as urgent, as i have run out"💊
BMG patients, we know life gets busy and it’s easy to forget to order your repeat prescription on time.
🏥But in the month of June 2025, we wanted to let you know that our fabulous medicines management team processed on average 4️⃣9️⃣7️⃣1️⃣ repeat prescriptions every day. Adding to this pressure may just tip our happy bunch over the top. We will always try our best, but urgent requests can be tricky to accommodate, so please can we ask that you:
📅 Plan ahead to avoid any last-minute stress for you and for us!
📣 Let the team know why your repeat medications don't appear to be lasting you as long as they should and we can look into this for you, we get it that items are lost or misplaced....we just need to know.
⏳ ....did you know you can order up to 10 days in advance? ✅ Even controlled drugs can be requested, but they will be post dated to the date you are due them and not when you think you might need them.
3️⃣Currently we have a turnaround of 3 days from receiving your request to processing your repeat medication order, so if its not done in that time, there maybe a query with the order.
⁉️Just asking: when you last ordered, did your repeat prescription get rejected, do you want to know why?
🅰️ Your order will be processed and accepted, only if it is due . It will get rejected if placed just because you’ve run out , we would need to know why you are ordering, when it says on our system, that you should have enough.
📲 Save time & order through the NHS App! It’s quicker, easier, and more efficient – giving you more control over your prescriptions while helping us keep things running smoothly. ( ask at reception if you need help setting the NHS App up)
📲You can check if your prescription has been accepted , in the NHS App too ( in the mange your prescriptions on the homepage) saves ringing to check.
🧾Fact: Using the paper option, to order your repeats, is a longer time ordering process for you. Why not give the NHs App a go!
⏰ Help us help you – order on time and stay on top of your medication!
Thank you for your patience & support! ❤️
