Oesophageal Cancer Awareness Month is a time to raise awareness of risk factors, symptoms and the importance of looking after your long-term health.

A family history of cancer, smoking, va**ng, poor diet and long-term acid reflux can all increase risk. Making positive lifestyle changes, such as stopping smoking or va**ng, can help reduce the risk of many cancers and improve overall health.

Knowing the signs and understanding risk factors can support earlier diagnosis and better outcomes. 🎗️🩺💙✨

📢 WE NEED YOUR HELP! 📢

We’re struggling with parking misuse again, and it’s our patients who are paying the price.
It might seem like "just one car," but one misused space can impact up to 30 different patients in a single day.

We want our patients to arrive for their appointments feeling supported, not stressed about where to park.

Please share this post to help us spread the word: Designated parking is for appointments only.

Thank you for helping us look after our community! 💙

Children’s Mental Health Week is a great opportunity to think about how we can support children’s wellbeing in everyday life. 🧠💙📱✨

Creating healthy habits around screen time and internet use, having open conversations about what children see online, and knowing where to find support can all make a positive difference.

For families waiting for neurodiversity or mental health assessments, trusted guidance and early support can help while you’re on the journey. Small, consistent actions at home can help children feel safer, more confident and better supported.
