💊 Think Pharmacy First!

Did you know your local community pharmacy can now provide advice and, where appropriate, NHS treatment for several common conditions—without needing to see a GP first?

The NHS Pharmacy First service can help with:
✅ Sore throat
✅ Earache (ages 1–17)
✅ Sinusitis
✅ Infected insect bites
✅ Impetigo
✅ Shingles
✅ Uncomplicated urinary tract infections (women aged 16–64)

Your pharmacist is a highly trained healthcare professional who can assess your symptoms, provide advice, and, if appropriate, supply NHS treatment. If you need further medical care, they’ll make sure you’re directed to the right service.

Using Pharmacy First helps you get the care you need more quickly while keeping GP appointments available for patients with more complex health needs.

📍 Speak to your local community pharmacy or ask our reception team for more information.

💚 National Alcohol Awareness Week | 6–12 July

This week is an opportunity to think about the role alcohol plays in our lives and to have open, supportive conversations about drinking.

Whether you’re looking to cut down, support someone close to you, or simply learn more about the effects of alcohol on your health, small changes can make a big difference.

Drinking less alcohol can help improve:
✔️ Sleep
✔️ Mood and mental wellbeing
✔️ Blood pressure
✔️ Liver health
✔️ Energy levels
✔️ Your long-term risk of serious health conditions

If you’re worried about your drinking, or that of someone you care about, you don’t have to face it alone. Our team is here to listen without judgement and help you access the right support.

📞 Contact the practice on 0208 772 8772 to book an appointment if you’d like to discuss your alcohol use or get advice.
