✨Northern Fells Group✨
Here is some inspiration for potential things to do, or groups to join in the coming month; There are many wonderful and welcoming, groups which we hope may encourage you out to meet and make new friends, get fitter and keep more active or just explore your creative sides with. We know it’s hard to feel motivated, especially when it’s so bitterly cold outside, but wrap up warm and take the plunge! As you will see in our Diary there are some nice new lunch groups around the community to satisfy those tums as well.

7 Common Conditions Your Community Pharmacy Can Help With!

Did you know your local pharmacy can be your first port of call for a range of common conditions? They’re quick, convenient, and staffed by trained professionals ready to give advice and treatment where appropriate.

Here are 7 conditions they can support with — including the age ranges for safe care:

UTIs – non-pregnant women 16–64 years
Shingles – 18+
Impetigo – 1+
Sore Throat – 5+
Sinusitis – 12+
Infected Insect Bites – 1+
Earache – 1–17 years
🩺 For many of these, you don’t need a GP appointment — your community pharmacy can help assess, advise, and even provide treatment where suitable.

Remember: if you’re unsure, always ask a healthcare professional.
