A big thank you to our GP partners for such a thoughtful Easter treat for the team 🐣🍫

Nothing boosts team morale quite like surprise chocolate appearing at work 👀

It really means a lot to feel appreciated, and it’s gestures like this that make a difference to everyone working hard behind the scenes.

We’re very lucky to have such supportive partners—thank you for making us all smile this Easter!

🛑 Meningitis Outbreak, patient information 🛑

We understand some patients are feeling worried following recent news about a meningitis outbreak.

We’d like to reassure you that this outbreak is being managed locally in Kent, and there is currently no national guidance for GP practices to offer additional vaccinations outside of the routine schedule.

The Men B vaccine has been part of the UK childhood vaccination programme since 2015, given to babies at 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 12 months.

👉 This means:
• Children currently aged around 10–11 and under are likely to have already been vaccinated
• Older children and adults would not have been routinely eligible

At present, we are not offering additional Men B vaccinations at the practice.

If you feel you or your child may be at risk or are particularly concerned, please speak to a healthcare professional for advice.

If anyone would like to access the Men B vaccination as they have never been eligible then you would need to access this privately from a pharmacy.

💙 As always, if anyone becomes unwell or you are concerned about symptoms, please seek medical advice promptly.

Thank you for your understanding 💙

👋 Meet the Team – Our GP Partners

Say hello to the GP Partners who lead Colne Valley Group Practice which includes The Globe and Marsden Health Centre:

⭐ Dr Graham Crippin
⭐ Dr Andy Storr
⭐ Dr Rebecca Hoddinott

As GP Partners, they help lead and shape the running of the whole practice, making important decisions about how services are delivered and how we care for our patients and community.

Alongside this leadership role, they are also part of our day-to-day clinical team., so you are still likely to see them in clinics, and working as the on-call GP alongside the rest of the team.

We’re also proud to be a teaching practice, with our GP Partners helping to train and support GP trainees and junior doctors during their placements with us.

Basically… they keep the practice running, look after our patients, and help train the next generation of doctors too. No pressure! 😉

We’re incredibly lucky to work along side them 😃👏
