The NHS Lincolnshire ICB is asking for your support in raising awareness of ovarian cancer — a condition that affects around 7,600 women in the UK each year, making it the sixth most common cancer in women.

We are developing a public awareness campaign to help more women recognise the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer earlier. To make this campaign as effective as possible, we need your help.

Please take a few minutes to complete our short survey and help us:

- Understand current awareness levels of ovarian cancer and its symptoms

- Identify knowledge gaps across our communities

- Shape clear, impactful messages that are meaningful

Complete the survey: https://lincolnshire.icb.nhs.uk/ovarian-cancer


Your feedback will directly influence how we communicate this vital information.

We have been made aware of a scam involving phone calls from individuals claiming to be nutritionists requesting to change your medication. These callers may ask for payment over the phone and request your bank details.

Please be advised that this is a scam and is not associated with our surgery in any way. Do not provide any personal or financial information. We recommend hanging up immediately if you receive such a call.

Our doctors have been subjected to racial abuse. This will not be tolerated. The overwhelming majority of our patients in our community are lovely and welcome these clinicians and recognise the immense contribution they make to our town. Our doctors also feel privileged to treat them. We are very fortunate to have many skilled doctors who chose to travel across the world to work with us for the benefit of our local people. No one should feel unsafe or unwelcome in their workplace. Our practice ethos is that all staff and patients should be treated with respect at all times, this racist behaviour will not be tolerated, and actions will be taken by the practice against this as no one should be treated differently.
