🚌 Did you know?
When a bus is already full, opening more doors doesn’t make it safer — it just overloads the driver.
The same is true for General Practice.
Safe working protects patients and protects the service.
Maybe the real answer is simple: more buses and more drivers. 💙

🚨 Did you know?
Pushing for “more GP access” without extra staff or resources risks the one thing that matters most: patient safety.
GPs are delivering more care than ever, but being asked to do even more with even less isn’t safe for patients or teams.
Safe care must come before endless access demands. 💛

Children under 6 are now being offered the MMRV vaccine instead of MMR as part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme.

This replaces the existing MMR vaccine and adds protection against chickenpox, alongside measles, mumps and rubella.

You don’t need to do anything — your GP will contact you when your child is due.
