DNA’s (Did not attend) FEBRUARY 2026. Please let us know in plenty of time if you are unable to attend the Surgery. Every time an appointment is missed it has an impact. Not only is it time wasted, invariably the patient has to be re-booked and that reduces the number of available appointments for everyone else. Thank you.

We’ve launched our new Health & Wellbeing Survey and we want to hear from as many residents as possible.

The survey gives people the chance to share what matters most to them, from mental health and physical activity to smoking, alcohol, oral health and more. It’s completely anonymous and only takes a few minutes to complete.

Your insight helps us shape future services and better support our communities.

Take the survey by clicking the link in the comments below.

If you care for someone who has dementia or live with the diagnosis yourself, you can book a free 45-minute face-to-face appointment with a dementia specialist Admiral Nurse for expert, tailored support, whatever your questions or concerns. Our dementia clinics are being held at selected Nationwide branches across the UK. All appointments are confidential and will take place in a private space within the branch. You do not need to be a Nationwide member to book an appointment. Please see below.
