We are currently working on a new logo for the Practice with the very talented local artist Lucy Driver.  This will appear on all our correspondence and publications in the coming months!  Watch this space!......

Transport Assistance

Do you own a 4x4?  Would you be willing to help out other less able patients should the bad weather return?  We are compiling a list at the Medical Centre of people/patients who would be willing to deliver medication out to our more remote areas where the roads may be impassable to anything less than a 4x4 or a tractor.  We also need people without a car to be able to walk through bad weather to deliver medication around the village for some of our elderly patients. Please speak to our receptionists and they will add your name to the list.

Flu Clinics!

We are running flu clinics on 29th September, 13th October and 10th November this year for Over 65s, Under 65s with Chronic illnesses and 2-4 year olds.  Contact reception to book your appointment.
