Sexual Violence Awareness Week is a time to highlight support for anyone affected by sexual assault or sexual violence, including women and men. 💜

Help is available if you have experienced abuse, are worried about someone else, or need advice on staying safe. Confidential support, medical care, forensic services and sexual health checks (including STI testing) can be accessed through specialist services.

You may also see emergency alert test notifications on your phone during national testing. Opting out can help some people keep phones hidden and safe, as these alerts override silent and do not disturb settings.

You are not alone, and support is there when you are ready. 🕊️🩺✨

Turning on NHS App notifications is a simple way to help the NHS save money while staying informed about your healthcare. 💙

Notifications can remind you about appointments, test results, prescriptions and important updates, helping reduce missed appointments and unnecessary letters or texts.

Using the NHS App makes it easier to manage your health in one place, saves time for NHS services and helps resources be used where they are needed most. Making this small change can have a big impact for you and the NHS. 📱

🌟 Community Support in Action at Meadowgreen Health Centre! 🌟

Today, Lisa, our Social Prescriber, teamed up with Sue from St Luke’s to raise awareness about the amazing support services available to our patients and local community.

They spent the morning in reception sharing information, answering questions, and highlighting the valuable work St Luke’s does - offering care, comfort, and guidance when it’s needed most. 💗
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn more!

Together, we’re building stronger connections and supporting the wellbeing of our community. 🌼

☎️Update on Emma – What to Expect When You Call ☎️

Thank you to everyone who has shared feedback about Emma, our virtual receptionist. We’ve received many positive comments, particularly about calls being answered more quickly and receiving a response from the clinician or team member more efficiently.

We wanted to clarify one important point, as a common theme in feedback is that some patients expect Emma to give answers or medical advice straight away.

Please be reassured:

📝Emma’s role is to take your request, not to provide clinical advice or decisions.

👩🏻‍💼Once your query is submitted, it is passed to the most appropriate member of our team.

📇A real person – either a clinician or an administrator – will then review your request and contact you.

This change has helped us work more efficiently:

☺️Reception staff now have more time to deal with patient queries properly.

☎️Patients are no longer waiting up to 30 minutes for calls to be answered.

👍🏻Requests can be directed more quickly to the right clinician or team, helping us respond sooner.

We appreciate your patience as we continue to embed this system and thank you for your support while we work to improve access for everyone 💚

Regular exercise plays a vital role in maintaining both physical and mental health, and it does not have to mean spending hours in the gym. Being active can help reduce the risk of long-term conditions, improve mood and boost energy levels, while also supporting independence as we age.

Examples of regular exercise include:
🚴‍♂️ Brisk walking or cycling to improve heart health
💪 Strength exercises like carrying shopping or resistance training to build muscle
🧘‍♀️Balance and flexibility activities such as yoga or stretching to reduce falls and stiffness
💙 Low-impact activities like swimming or chair-based exercises, especially later in life

Staying active in ways you enjoy makes it easier to keep exercise as part of everyday life.

💬 Let’s talk about bowel cancer screening

Talking about bowel health isn’t embarrassing – it’s normal, and it can save lives. Screening helps spot signs of bowel cancer early, when treatment is most effective.

If you’re invited to take part, please don’t ignore it. A simple test at home could make a life-saving difference.
