This February, let’s show our hearts some love ❤️
Heart disease affects millions of people, but small changes can make a big difference. Eating well, moving more, stopping smoking and checking your blood pressure can all help keep your heart healthy.
💡 Did you know? Checking your blood pressure regularly is one of the simplest ways to look after your heart.
Let’s use National Heart Month to take a moment for our health – and encourage those around us to do the same.

In the month of January we had 231 people who didn't attend their appointment. This is valuable clinical time we have lost. If you can't attend your appointment please let us know as soon as possible via askmyGP or the phones. We can then try and offer this to other patients.

You may have found our phone lines even busier through January - that's because we had 24145 calls to us!

🎀 Cervical Cancer Awareness Week (22–28 Jan) 🎀
This week we're joining the national movement to raise awareness of cervical cancer and highlight the importance of prevention, detection, and support.

💡 Did You Know?
Around 3,300 people in the UK are diagnosed with cervical cancer each year.
99.8% of cervical cancer cases are preventable through HPV vaccination and regular cervical screening.
Early detection saves lives, 86.8% of those diagnosed between ages 15-44 survive 10 years or more.

✅ What You Can Do:
Book your cervical screening (smear test) if you’re 25-64 and registered with a GP. Tests are every 5 years.
If aged 16–24 and missed the HPV vaccine at school, contact your GP’s practice to arrange one.
Talk about symptoms; unusual bleeding, post-sex bleeding, pelvic pain or discharge, and see your GP if anything feels off.

🧭 Where to Find Support:
NHS Cervical Screening Info – Learn about appointments, what to expect, and results.

📣 Help us spread the word:
Like & share this post to remind your community
Tag someone who needs a gentle nudge to book their test
Share your story (“I’ve just booked mine!”) to encourage others

Let’s make screening the norm, not the exception 💪
