From October to March we can’t make enough vitamin D from sunlight. Government advice is that everyone should consider taking a daily vitamin D supplement during the autumn and winter to keep bones and muscles healthy.

You can get vitamin D from most pharmacies and retailers.

Please can we ask the patients who have taken home a Blood Pressure monitor to do a 4 or 7 day reading could they kindly return them ASAP as we don’t have any to rent out to patients who need to do a home reading. The monitors cost around £20 pounds, which is why do ask for a deposit so we can buy new ones if they are not returned but we have given some out without a charge and would really appreciate if you could return them.

Thank you very much.
