Oesophageal Cancer Awareness Month is a time to raise awareness of risk factors, symptoms and the importance of looking after your long-term health.

A family history of cancer, smoking, va**ng, poor diet and long-term acid reflux can all increase risk. Making positive lifestyle changes, such as stopping smoking or va**ng, can help reduce the risk of many cancers and improve overall health.

Knowing the signs and understanding risk factors can support earlier diagnosis and better outcomes. 🎗️🩺💙✨

Children’s Mental Health Week is a great opportunity to think about how we can support children’s wellbeing in everyday life. 🧠💙📱✨

Creating healthy habits around screen time and internet use, having open conversations about what children see online, and knowing where to find support can all make a positive difference.

For families waiting for neurodiversity or mental health assessments, trusted guidance and early support can help while you’re on the journey. Small, consistent actions at home can help children feel safer, more confident and better supported.

📞 Important update to our phone system

From Monday 9th February 2026, we’ll be introducing a new voice agent when you call the practice.

When you ring us, you’ll be greeted by an automated message with options relevant to your enquiry.
📆 If you require an appointment, you’ll be asked a short set of triage questions to help direct you to the most appropriate source of care.
📞 If you’d prefer to speak to our Patient Services Team, you can request a callback.

Please note: the callback service does not guarantee an appointment. All requests will be triaged and managed in the same way as our voice agent, to ensure patients receive the right care as efficiently as possible.

Thank you for your understanding and support as we introduce this new and upcoming improvement to The Cambridge Practice 💙
