Hello, it’s Claire here.

I’m one of the nurses at The Medical Group, and as April is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month, I wanted to share my story to help raise awareness and encourage others to take screening seriously.

🎈 Turning 50 & Screening - Last year, I turned 50 and received my bowel cancer screening kit in the post. As a nurse, I know how important screening is — it’s designed to prevent or detect cancer early, often before symptoms appear.

🧪 My Test Came Back Positive - I completed the kit, and the result was positive. Further investigations found bowel cancer, and I needed surgery. Cancer was also found in the lymph nodes, and I was diagnosed with Stage 3 bowel cancer, followed by six months of chemotherapy.

⚠️ I Had NO Symptoms! This is why screening is so important. Without it, the outcome could have been very different.

💙 My Message to You: When your bowel screening kit arrives, please do it. It could save your life.

Please also be aware of possible symptoms:
🩸 Blood in your poo
🔄 Change in bowel habits
⚖️ Unexplained weight loss
🤕 Pain or lump in your tummy

I am now completing my treatment and looking forward to returning to work in the coming months.

🌟 Important Information for Parents and Guardians 🌟

As part of NHS guidance, when a child reaches 11 years old, a parent or guardian’s proxy access to their online medical record will be automatically switched off.

We know this can feel like a big change, but it’s done to help protect young people as they start to gain more independence. From age 11, children begin to have more say in their own health and who can see their medical information. This helps us make sure their privacy is respected and their wellbeing is supported.

This does not mean you can’t continue helping your child with their health needs. If you feel you still need access—for example, to manage appointments, medicines, or ongoing care—please contact the practice. We’ll be happy to talk with you and your child to find the right level of access going forward.

Thank you for your understanding and for working with us to support your child’s health.

🌿Browney Resident's Association - Fair Exchange Community Garden🌿

Did you know that there are open sessions every Saturday morning (unless they have another larger scale event happening) from 10am until 12 noon and everyone is welcome to pop along, do as little or as much as you can, take away any produce they have ready or you can just come along for a chat and a cuppa. The garden is as much about combatting social isolation as it is growing.

🌿 Happy Social Prescribing Day! 🌿

Today we’re celebrating the incredible impact of Social Prescribing and the people who make it happen 💚

Social Prescribers play a vital role in supporting our patients beyond medical care — helping people connect with community groups, activities, and services that improve wellbeing, reduce isolation, and support mental and physical health.

Whether it’s finding support for loneliness, help with finances, access to exercise groups, or simply someone to talk to — Social Prescribers are here to listen and guide.

Laura Elliott is our lovely Social Prescriber, and she covers the 5 sites at The Medical Group - spending a day at each site throughout the week.

If you feel you could benefit from extra support from Laura, speak to a member of our team, or contact the practice to find out more.

Unfortunately, we are again very short staffed due to sickness. This includes clinicians, reception staff and administration team.

Please bear with us while we try to help you as quickly as we can in difficult circumstances.
