Whether you’re prepping food, using the loo, blowing your nose or getting home from a trip out — clean hands matter! Check these useful guides:

Take 20 seconds (the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice) to lather, rub all surfaces, rinse & dry — and you’ll make a big difference. 💧👌

MONDAY 8th DECEMBER ...

We’re experiencing GP sickness absence today, which means we have fewer appointments than usual.

To ensure you are seen promptly, we may offer you an appointment at an alternative site.

If you have had your appointment cancelled, please try and use the NHS app to re-book wherever possible. Our phone lines are extremely busy this morning.

We appreciate your patience.

Thank you,

Valley MC 🌳

HOW LOVELY IS THIS! 🥰

We have recently had some new posters and leaflets made for our Friendly Visitor Service, thank you to Luke at Stocksbridge Community Leisure Centre for designing these for us. There's a photo of Arthur and Alec enjoying a cup of coffee together on them. Alec is one of our volunteer visitors and he visits Arthur every week for a chat and most weeks he takes him out for a coffee.

Fox Valley have very kindly displayed one of our posters in their shopping centre (it's inbetween Home Bargains and Costa Coffee). This week Alec took Arthur down to see the poster and we just couldn't resist another photograph!
