Did you know that around 1.4m medicine items are wasted
unnecessarily in Gloucestershire each year? We need your help to reduce this. If you have a repeat prescription - only order what you need and don’t stockpile .💙

We still have some furniture we need to get rid of from the old surgery. If you want to come and have a look at what is left (see pictures previously posted) then we will have everything outside in the old surgery car park tomorrow. Anything still there on Friday afternoon will be disposed of.

Come along and help yourself...

We are having a last chance clear out of furniture from the old surgery.

If you would like any of the items below (sofa, chairs, Ikea desk etc) please let us know.

They are all FREE but do need to be collected early next week.

This is your chance to own a piece of surgery history 😉 ...!

The surgery will be closed today between 11am and 1pm. Open as usual before and after those times.

Many thanks.
