Tips on how you can manage cold symptoms, supporting you to look after you.

*Take simple pain relief like paracetamol or ibuprofen.
*Decongestant nasal sprays can help with a blocked nose.
*Inhalants (eucalyptus, menthol) can also help ease a blocked nose.
*Drink plenty of water to avoid getting dehydrated.
*Gargle salt water to soothe a sore throat.
*Wash your hands often and use tissues to prevent germs from spreading.

For more advice ask visit your local pharmacy.

You can treat a cold without seeing a GP.

Antibiotics do not work for colds because colds are caused by viruses not bacteria.

The Colds leaflet is available on our Self-care Stands at both sites.

It’s not too late to get your flu vaccination!

We’re holding a flu clinic this Saturday, 9am–1pm.

Car-side vaccinations are available for patients with reduced mobility.
Just let us know when booking your appointment.

The flu vaccine helps protect you against the most common flu viruses. You may still catch flu after being vaccinated, but symptoms are usually milder and shorter-lasting. Please remember it can take up to 14 days for the vaccine to become fully effective.

Children’s nasal flu vaccines will also be available for anyone who hasn’t had theirs yet.
More information here: nhs.uk/vaccinations/child-flu-vaccine/

Flu can be very unpleasant for children and may lead to serious complications like pneumonia. Each winter, thousands of children without underlying conditions need hospital care because of flu. Since children easily catch and spread flu, vaccinating them also helps protect vulnerable groups — including babies, pregnant people, and older adults.

Stay protected this winter and book your appointment 💙

Eastwood Parkinson's Exercise Group.

"It was great to visit our local Parkinson’s Group recently and see first-hand what they do. Their weekly meetings begin with a warm welcome. I chatted with a gentleman from Heanor on his first visit—he’d discovered the group through the Parkinson's UK website and was delighted to find something local.

The session moved on to exercise to music, with everyone working at their own pace and plenty of fun along the way. John then led paired exercises using different pieces of equipment around the room—again with a strong focus on enjoyment as well as movement. All the exercises are designed to improve strength, balance, muscle control and self-confidence.

As always, the session finished with a friendly chat, a cuppa, and a biscuit (or two!). Some people with Parkinson’s attended on their own, others came with partners or friends, and there were welcoming volunteers on hand throughout to offer support.

Although the group is called the Eastwood Parkinson’s Exercise Group, they offer far more than just exercise. It’s a warm, supportive community that shares lived experiences, practical knowledge, and a friendly place to socialise."

If you have Parkinson’s—or know someone who does—please consider giving it a try or sharing the details with others. The first session is free, usual cost £5 which includes refreshments.

We’re seeing an unusually early start to the flu season, with cases continuing to rise.

Young children are particularly vulnerable to flu complications. Children aged 2 and 3 can get a free nasal spray flu vaccine — it’s safe, quick, painless, and proven to reduce the risk of serious illness.

People living with diabetes or other long-term health conditions are also at higher risk. Flu can make managing these conditions more difficult and may lead to serious complications. The flu vaccine is safe, effective, and strongly recommended for anyone with a chronic condition, offering robust protection against severe illness and hospitalisation.

Older adults are more likely to experience serious flu symptoms and complications. The flu vaccine remains the best defence, reducing the risk of hospitalisation by nearly half and helping to prevent severe outcomes.

It's not too late, so if you’re eligible, please get your flu vaccine as soon as possible. Protect yourself and your loved ones — don’t let flu disrupt your Christmas celebrations.
