Also, some of the planned deliveries would not be possible due to flooding. We will catch up with today's deliveries throughout the rest of the week. We will begin making contact with affected patients shortly.

Unfortunately a doctors bike was stolen on Friday 23rd from the practice. It was locked up, at the staff entrance. The area is covered by CCTV, and this will be shared with the police. Feel free to return it in good working order before this needs to happen.

🥳We have good news to bring you this morning! After a supportive meeting with Exeter City planners, it was determined that the building work can recommence whilst paperwork is completed. The builders are permitted to use the access via the partially remove bramble hedge on the approach road as this is the only viable access, and it will be reinstated upon completion. As this was all dealt with so promptly, there hopefully will not be a delay to the completion date. Thank you for all your support (of which we have received a lot!), it has really helped during what was a very stressful week!

It is important to note that we do not get told where the original complaint arose from. It appears some have made assumptions, which has led to targeted abuse; this is not okay and we ask you to please reconsider and remove abusive or unpleasant comments.

Next steps: digging for the foundations!👷‍♀️👷‍♂️

We will keep you updated on the progress of the build via this page, welcome to all of our new followers.

We have been made aware via an admin of the ‘Pinhoe Forum’ page that ‘several residents’ have contacted them with concerns about the partial removal of a bramble hedge on the practice boundary to allow safe building works access. We have not received any such concerns from residents or patients directly. The plan had, for some time, been to remove the (unruly, poor-quality) hedging and replace it upon completion (probably with something nicer). We received permission for this partial removal, on the basis of a replacement at the conclusion of the build, although it transpires that it may not have been received from the correct person. All other areas of hedge now have protective barriers around them.

A ‘stop notice' is being investigated by the local planning authority because of, presumably, a complaint. We are working with them to remedy the issue. In the meantime, the building works will be paused, with the inevitable resultant delays.

We will continue to provide updates on our page but would encourage anyone with comments - positive or otherwise - regarding the build to direct these to the practice email pinhoe.surgery@nhs.net, with 'BUILD' in the subject.

We do not regard Facebook as an appropriate forum for discussions regarding planning applications, all of which are accessible via the Exeter planning portal. We have turned off commenting on this post as it is for information only, and our priority is to provide patient care, the reason for the extension in the first place.

**Please be aware, the building site is not accessible to members of the public, due to risk of injury.**

As Christmastime and the holiday season arrive, we want to acknowledge that this time of year can bring mixed emotions. While some people experience joy and connection, others may feel loneliness, grief, stress, or find that the season is simply hard to get through. If this time of year is difficult for you, please know you are not alone—and that support is available.

Exciting News: Our Surgery Extension Is About to Begin
We’re delighted to let you know that Pinhoe Surgery has received full approval and funding to begin our long-awaited building extension. Work is due to start on 5 January 2026, and we’re very pleased to be moving forward.
A local company, Fifields, will be carrying out the construction. They will have a temporary site office in our car park, which will unfortunately reduce parking by five spaces during the project. The work is expected to finish by 28 August 2026.
What’s changing?
• A brand-new extension to create more space for patient care and to house our growing administrative team
• Replacement of all skylights to improve light and heat efficiency
• A full refurbishment of the current nursing suite, transforming it into purpose-built clinical rooms
The project will take place in phases. First, the new extension will be built. Once that’s ready, we’ll connect it to the existing surgery so we can begin using the new rooms while the older areas are being updated.
Throughout the works, we’ll do everything we can to keep disruption to a minimum. We’ll keep you updated via our waiting rooms, website, page, and foyer notices. To help maintain privacy, frosted window film will be added to all ground-floor clinic areas during construction.
This extension has been many years in the making, and we’re thrilled to be improving the surgery for the benefit of our patients and the future of general practice. Thank you for your patience and understanding while the work is under way.
