Due to the volume of demand, and in line with other local GP practices, there is now a charge for GP letters.
This fee needs to be paid in case before any letter requests will be processed.
Please speak to reception to complete a request form, and for more details of fees payable.

We will soon be inviting eligible patients to book for their flu and RSV vaccinations. Once we have confirmed our clinics, we will send out links so you can book directly. Similar to previous years, we plan to have weekly clinics at different times of the day. Hopefully this will mean that everyone will find a suitable time for them. We really enjoy doing these clinics, as it is so nice to see so many familiar faces.
If you are over aged 75-79 years, then we will also offer you the RSV vaccine. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major respiratory virus that is common over the winter period, typically November to February. For more information see https://ukhsa.blog.gov.uk/2024/07/17/what-is-rsv-and-is-there-a-vaccine/
This practice is delighted to be signed up to the Green Impact for Health Toolkit and is actively taking steps to reduce our carbon footprint.
The climate emergency is also a health emergency, and health care in the UK contributes 4-5% of the UK’s carbon emissions. We need to enhance the health of today’s population without compromising the health of future generations, and this means operating within the sustainable boundaries of the planet. Fortunately, most of the solutions for the planet also make our health better – for example eating a mainly plant-based diet, engaging in active travel and exercise in nature, avoiding smoking, reducing pollution etc. These all enhance our health and reduce our need for medications, with further benefits to the NHS, your health and the carbon footprint of healthcare. Take a look at www.greenerpractice.co.uk to learn more about this.
