The practice was originally founded in the 1940’s in the Westminster area of Ellesmere Port, progressing to the premises in 102 Whitby Road in the 1960’s and 3a Civic Way in 1970.

Today we’re raising awareness about diabetes — a condition that affects over 5 million people in the UK, and many more are at risk without knowing it.

🩵 Know the signs

🩵 Get checked early

🩵 Manage your health and well-being at every age

🌿 Self-Care and Over-the-Counter (OTC) Medicines 🌿
At York Road Group Practice, we follow NHS guidance encouraging self-care for common, minor conditions.
💊 Many short-term illnesses can be safely managed at home with advice from your local pharmacist and over-the-counter (OTC) medicines.

Common examples include:
• Coughs, colds, and sore throats
• Mild hay fever or allergies
• Headache, mild pain, or fever
• Heartburn or indigestion
• Constipation or diarrhoea
• Dry skin, mild eczema, or acne
• Insect bites and stings

👩‍⚕️ What this means for you:
✅ Your pharmacist can give expert advice and recommend effective OTC treatments.
✅ The NHS no longer prescribes routine medicines for minor, short-term conditions that can be safely treated at home.
✅ This helps keep NHS appointments and prescriptions available for those who need them most.

📞 Need more help?
If your symptoms don’t improve, get worse, or you’re worried, please contact the surgery for clinical advice.

💙 Bowel Cancer Screening Saves Lives

Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK, but it’s also highly treatable when found early.

🩺 Why screening matters:
• It can detect cancer before symptoms appear.
• Early detection means better treatment and survival rates.
• Screening can find and remove polyps before they turn into cancer.

📬 If you’re aged 54 to 74 (in England) and registered with a GP, you’ll be sent a bowel cancer screening kit every two years.
It’s quick, easy to do at home, and could save your life.

📞 If you haven’t received your kit or aren’t sure when it’s due, call the NHS bowel cancer screening helpline on 0800 707 60 60.

💬 Don’t ignore it – complete it!
Encourage your friends and family to do the same. Talking about bowel screening helps break the stigma and saves lives.
