🕊️ Remembrance Day – Lest We Forget 🕊️

Today, we pause to remember and honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of all those who gave their lives in conflict so that we may live in peace.

At 11am, all staff who are able to will observe a two-minute silence to pay our respects and reflect on the bravery of those who served and those who continue to serve in the Armed Forces.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

🌺 Lest we forget.

This week we'll be celebrating all things primary care! We'll be highlighting the achievements of our Greater Manchester primary care colleagues and showcasing some of the things they do to go that extra mile for patients.
Primary care is the heart of our communities — from GPs and pharmacists to dentists and opticians. They’re not just there when we’re unwell, but play a vital role in prevention, early diagnosis, and lifelong wellbeing.
Follow the link in the comments to find out how primary care has evolved and to read about some of the incredible achievements of our Greater Manchester colleagues since the launch of the NHS Greater Manchester Primary Care Blueprint.

Happy Halloween! Send this to a friend to remind them. 🎃🎃

Today also marks the end of Breast Cancer Awareness month, so this is a gentle reminder to take a minute today to check your breasts.

A lump in the breast is the most common symptom of breast cancer, but there are others to look for:

• thickening of the skin or tissue of the breast

• dimpling of the skin of the breast

• a lump or swelling in either armpit

• a change in the shape or size of the breast, such as swelling in all or part of the breast

• a ni**le turning in (inverted ni**le)

• an eczema-like rash on the ni**le

• discharge or bleeding from the ni**le

• pain or discomfort in the breast that does not go away – but this is rare.

We understand that showing any symptoms of what could be cancer is worrying. The most important thing is to speak to your GP as soon as possible
