This Bank Holiday weekend is due to be very warm and sunny.

Hot weather comes with risks to people who are elderly, young children and those with medical conditions. Take care to keep cool, stay hydrated and look out for vulnerable friends, family and neighbours.

The heat often leads to increased demand on emergency services due to heatstroke, heat exhaustion and dehydration. Take steps to avoid negative side effects of hot weather this weekend.

Have you used the Enhanced Access Service?

Patients registered at our ten GP practices can book appointments with GPs, Nurses, Paramedics, ANPs & Clinical Pharmacists on weekday evenings and Saturdays at three hub locations. Appointments can be made via your registered surgery.

We ask patients who use this service for feedback. Feedback is overwhelmingly positive with patients finding the service useful.
