📣 New Build Update 📣

We are pleased to announce that planning permission for our new surgery at the Perrybrook site has now been granted by Tewkesbury Borough Council. This means we can officially move forward to the next stage of development.

We know this process has caused frustration for many of our patients — as it has for us — particularly as it has taken several years following the original proposal to combine with Hucclecote Surgery, which unfortunately fell through when the landowners decided to build housing instead. The Perrybrook site became the only viable option, as it includes a Section 106 allocation specifically designated for a medical centre.

We are aware that there have been questions raised on social media regarding the new building. We are very happy to address these as best we can. If you would like further information, please email your questions to brockworthsurgery@nhs.net

To reassure you, the project is progressing. Now that planning permission has been secured:

❗️Our developers are finalising the necessary legal documentation

❗️We are seeking tenders for the construction of the surgery

❗️We have full funding support from NHS England

❗️Transport arrangements are being explored, with discussions ongoing with Stagecoach West regarding local bus services

❗️A formal transport plan will be developed

We truly understand the concerns and frustrations felt by our community. However, we are pleased to confirm that the project is now firmly moving forward, and we anticipate that building work will begin later this year.

Thank you for your continued patience and support :)

📊 Missed Appointments – 2025 Update

In 2025, 2,109 patients did not attend their appointments.

2,109 appointments × 15 minutes

= 527.25 hours of missed clinical time

= 22 full working days

In 2024, this equated to 27 days of missed appointments.

✅ That’s an improvement of 5 days in one year — which is encouraging!

However, as I’m sure you’ll agree, this still represents a significant amount of wasted clinical time that could have been used to support other patients.

💡 Let’s Keep Working Together

Reducing missed appointments helps us:

Improve access for everyone

Reduce waiting times

Make the best use of clinical resources

Every cancelled appointment that is rebooked for someone else makes a difference.

📌 How to Cancel an Appointment

We’ve received feedback that the cancellation form was difficult to find.
