If your child requires more care from you than other children of the same age and they are likely to need you to care for them for the rest of their lives, you are likely a parent carer.

If you spot a burst of balloons at Beversbrook today, it’s because we’re in full celebration mode! 🎈

We are overjoyed to be marking a truly heart-warming milestone — twenty wonderful years since Dr Bishop and Dr Sandford-Hill first received the keys to Beversbrook Medical Centre and the big move from Church Street Surgery began. A fabulous anniversary and the perfect moment to celebrate how much we’ve grown, achieved, and shared with our brilliant staff and patients over the last two decades! Happy 20th Birthday Beversbrook!

LONELINESS AWARENESS WEEK starts today.

Loneliness is a natural human emotion — a sign that there's a mismatch between the social connections we have, and the social connections we would like to have. Although almost everyone will experience loneliness in their lifetime, it can be difficult to talk about it openly.

At Calne Town Council, we're working with Marmalade Trust towards being Wiltshire's most connected town — and we're inviting everyone to take part in !

There will be events happening in Calne throughout the week in support of the campaign - stay tuned for more details!
