At 11am today, we pause to remember all those who gave their lives in service to our country. 🌹 All staff will be taking part in a 2 minute silence in the main reception area this morning 🌹

On Armistice Day, we honour the courage, sacrifice, and resilience of those who served in conflicts past and present — and we reflect with gratitude for the peace they helped secure.

We will remember them. ❤️

🌹 Honouring Remembrance Sunday 🌹

Today, on Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour and remember the sacrifices made by those who served and continue to serve to protect our freedoms. This day stands as a powerful reminder of the courage, dedication, and selflessness of veterans, current service members, and their families.

Let us take a moment of silence to reflect on the lives lost and the families forever changed. As we wear our poppies, lay wreaths, and gather in remembrance, let’s also commit to supporting our veterans and keeping their legacy alive.

We remember. We thank you. 🌺

It’s MOVEMBER! 🥸💙

This month we’re supporting the Movember movement — raising awareness for men’s health issues including prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health.

Men, this is your reminder to:
✅ Check in with your mates — a simple “how are you?” can make a big difference.
✅ Book that health check you’ve been putting off.
✅ Keep an eye on your physical and mental wellbeing.

Let’s start conversations, raise awareness, and support the men in our lives. 💪

A huge thank you to our amazing staff who gave up their weekends to run our flu clinics — your hard work, dedication, and good humour make all the difference! 👏

Over the two Saturday clinics, we vaccinated 1,800 patients! 💉

We also want to say a big thank you to our Patient Participation Group (PPG) for helping with car parking and supporting patients throughout the clinics.

We’re incredibly grateful to have such a fantastic team and community spirit behind us — thank you all! 💙
