🌙 Ramadan Mubarak! 🌙

Practice Plus Group wishes all our Muslim colleagues, patients, and communities a blessed and peaceful holy month. 💜

During Ramadan, those observing will fast from sunrise to sunset - a time for spiritual reflection, togetherness, and generosity. As we embrace this sacred month, let’s support and uplift one another with kindness and understanding. ✨

Today's Feedback Friday highlight comes from a patient who felt supported every step of the way after their hip replacement. Clear advice, reassurance, and compassionate care are what we strive for - and it's inspiring to see that reflected back.

🌟 We’re proud to announce Alabaré as our Charity of the Year 🌟

Alabaré is doing incredible work supporting homeless veterans, helping them rebuild confidence, gain new skills and move into safe, independent homes. Their recent Stirling House self‑build project in Plymouth saw veterans earn construction qualifications, secure employment opportunities and even move into the homes they helped create 🏡💪
With a second project underway in Barne Barton, Alabaré continues to provide life‑changing support for those who have served our country.
We’re excited to partner with them this year and help extend the impact of this vital work.✨

It was a real honour for our Hospital Director, Sarah Fell, and our Clinical Educator, Darryl Newman, to attend the City College Plymouth Annual Apprenticeship Awards. 🤝🎉
The event was a fantastic celebration of the outstanding talent developing across our city, and it was inspiring to hear from guest speaker Steve Davis, six-time World Snooker Champion.
It was also a pleasure to reconnect with colleagues, both familiar faces and new, from across healthcare, local government, and a wide range of commercial organisations in Plymouth.
A thoroughly enjoyable evening and a great showcase of the future workforce.👏💜

It’s been a year since we launched our post-surgery s*x guide and it’s still proving popular! 🎉
We launched the guide last Valentine’s Day on our website and in national media, it even made it onto Lorraine thanks to Dr Hilary Jones.📺❤️

The guide is there to help because so many people having hip and knee replacements were asking when they could resume romance without causing injury.💜

🔗Download the guide here:

One of the most common questions asked by surgery patients is ‘How long after surgery can I have s*x?’ Find the answer in our expert guide.
