World Malaria Day, 25th April

Malaria is a life-threatening disease which is spread to humans by some types of mosquitoes. It is mostly found in tropical countries, especially Africa, and it is preventable and curable. Mild symptoms are fever, chills and headache. Severe symptoms include fatigue, confusion, seizures, and difficulty breathing. The majority of people who die from malaria are children.

World Malaria Day, organised by the World Health Organization, highlights the need for continued investment and sustained political commitment for malaria prevention and control.

Allergy Awareness Week, 22nd–28th April

Allergy affects more than a quarter of the UK population, and occurs when the body’s immune system reacts inappropriately to normally harmless substances. Some allergies are mild, but more severe cases can cause anaphylaxis, which can be fatal.

Many people’ symptoms go unrecognised, and they don’t get the support they need. So this year, the theme of Allergy Awareness Week is ‘I Wish I Knew: Diagnosis Matters’.

You can find out more about the campaign and learn about allergy symptoms, next steps and anaphylaxis on the Allergy UK website:

Our Tanners group enjoyed a morning of flower arranging last week!

The group founded by Sally our Health Coach runs every Thursday from 10.30am-12pm at The Wheathill Community Centre. What originally started as a Dementia friendly group has grown to provide a place for company and conversation.

Sally works hard organising and arranging activities that suit all levels of mobility and there is no pressure to take part, some people just enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit and sit and watch. The group celebrate special occasions such as birthdays.

Carers can attend for free and your loved ones can be left if you feel it is safe to do so.

New members are always welcome and your £1 donation goes towards tea, coffee, cake and future activities.

If you would like any further information please contact the surgery.
