Today we say goodbye and Happy Retirement to two Maltings stalwarts.

Nurse Helen Cullen has been at The Maltings Surgery for 35 years caring for generations of patients in our community, known for her kind nature and compassion.

Alison Watts has been with us 28 years as a notes summariser, meticulously making sure medical records are kept up to date.

We are grateful for their dedication and loyal service over the years and will really miss these special siblings who have been at the core of our team for so long.

Happy Retirement! 🎉🎉

RSV is a highly infectious respiratory virus which is usually no more serious than a cold.

But some people can be at risk of complications:

Huge thanks to BBC Breakfast for having our Chief Executive, Prof Dame Jenny Harries on the sofa this morning to talk about the vaccination programme rolling out next month across England.
