🕊️ 16 Days of Action Against Domestic Violence 🕊️
25th November – 10th December

Starting on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, the 16 Days of Action campaign is a global initiative calling for the end of all forms of domestic abuse.

At Avenham surgery, we stand with survivors and support anyone affected by domestic violence — regardless of gender, age, or background.

💜 If you are experiencing domestic abuse:
You are not alone, and help is available.
Our team is here to listen and support you in confidence. We can connect you with local services that provide practical and emotional help.

📞 If you’re in immediate danger, always call 999.
For non-emergency support, you can also contact:
➡️ National Domestic Abuse Helpline – 0808 2000 247 (24 hours, free and confidential)

Together, we can break the silence💜

💊 Reminder: Your Local Pharmacy Can Help!

Don’t forget, you don’t always need to see the GP for minor illnesses.
Your local pharmacist can offer expert advice and treatment for many common conditions, often without an appointment. 🙌

Pop into your pharmacy for help with:
✔️ Coughs, colds & sore throats
✔️ Earache, sinus pain or skin rashes
✔️ Hay fever & allergies
✔️ Tummy troubles or minor injuries

This helps you get care quickly and keeps GP appointments free for those who need them most. 💙

🌍 International Men’s Day – 19th November 💙

Today we’re celebrating International Men’s Day, a chance to recognise the positive value men bring to our families, communities, and workplaces. It’s also an important reminder that men’s health matters.

👨‍⚕️ Men often put off seeing their GP — whether it’s for a check-up, mental health support, or a new symptom. This International Men’s Day, we encourage all men to take a moment to look after their health:
✅ Book that routine appointment you’ve been meaning to make.
✅ Talk to someone if you’re feeling low, stressed, or anxious.
✅ Check in with friends and family – a simple chat can make a big difference.

Let’s break the stigma and make men’s health a priority all year round. 💪

🧘‍♀️ National Self Care Week • 17-23 November 2025
This year’s theme: “Mind & Body”.

Reminder: taking care of your health isn’t just about illness, it’s about daily habits that support your whole well being!

Here are some ways you might self-care this week:
🤸‍♀️Move your body – even a short walk or some gentle stretching can boost your mood and health.
Self-Care Forum

🧠Check in on your mental health – talk about how you’re doing, try some mindfulness or simply give yourself permission to rest.

🤝Make use of your local NHS team, pharmacy, or community support when you’re unsure what to do – self-care doesn’t mean going it alone.

🌞If you have a long-term condition or just feel “off”, ask us how you can better look after yourself, and let’s work together to keep you well.

Let’s make Self Care Week more than a week, let it be a starting point for healthier habits, stronger well being, and greater confidence in caring for ourselves.💪🧡

UK Disability History Month 2025

🗓 14 November – 20 December
Theme: “Disability, Life and Death”

This month we’re proud to support UK Disability History Month, recognising the achievements, experiences, and rights of disabled people — and reflecting on how we can all help create a fairer, more inclusive society.

The 2025 theme, “Disability, Life and Death,” invites us to think about how society values disabled people’s lives and the importance of equality, dignity, and inclusion in healthcare and beyond.

We’re committed to:
💙 Providing accessible, respectful care for everyone.
♿ Listening to the lived experiences of our patients.
🤝 Working to remove barriers — visible and invisible — that affect health and wellbeing.

Let’s use this month to celebrate disabled people’s contributions, challenge discrimination, and support equal access for all.
