Young Carers Action Day is nearly here. If you work with young carers, then save the date.

On Wednesday 11 March we are hosting a drop-in event to celebrate and raise awareness of young carers.

It will bring together organisations from across the borough who provide a wide range of local youth services, offering an opportunity to connect, share information, and support young carers.

Join us at Howdon Community Hub, Denbigh Avenue, NE28 0PP - 3.30pm - 5.30pm.

Patient Group Participants Wanted!

We are looking for patients to join a newly formed Patient Participation Group (PPG).

This is a great opportunity to:
* Share your own views and experiences
* Help shape and improve our services

You don’t need any medical knowledge — just an interest in helping the surgery improve.. All ages and backgrounds are welcome, and involvement can be as little or as much as you’re able to offer.

if you are interested please email

The NHS bowel cancer screening kit can detect signs of cancer before you notice anything is wrong.

If you’re sent a bowel cancer screening kit, put it by the loo. Don’t put it off.
