Today is Random Act of Kindness Day 💛

A simple smile, a thoughtful message, or a small gesture can brighten someone’s whole day.

If you need a little sunshine in your life today, please take a bunch of daffodils — and share a smile. 🌼
Or if you know someone who could do with some sunshine, take a bunch for them and pass the smile along.

Kindness costs nothing, but it means everything. Let’s spread a little sunshine today. ✨🩵

📢To all of our Sutterton Surgery Patients.📢

We are making some improvements to how we invite patients for medication reviews, long-term condition reviews, and any blood tests that may be required.

If you take regular medication or have a long-term condition, you may notice a change to when you are invited for these appointments.

From April, we will invite you for any required blood tests, followed by your medication review and/or long-term condition review, during the month of your birthday. You will receive your invitation in the month before your birthday to allow you time to book the necessary appointments.

During this first year of the new system, it is possible that you may receive an invitation even if you have had a recent review. If this happens, please still attend the appointment. After this initial year, your reviews will then take place once a year, aligned with your birth month.

Thank you for your cooperation as we introduce this new process.

Every day in the UK, two women and people with a cervix die from cervical cancer, and nine more receive a life-changing diagnosis. We can change this.

HPV vaccination and cervical screening are key to eliminating cervical cancer, yet uptake remains too low.

Our YouGov survey of over 2,000 people found: 🔹 3 in 4 would consider a vaccine to reduce the risk of six cancers
🔹 Only 1 in 2 would choose the HPV vaccine
🔹 Just 1 in 2 know HPV can cause cervical cancer
🔹 Awareness is even lower for other HPV-related cancers

📣 Raising awareness saves lives.
Talk about HPV. Get vaccinated. Attend screening.

If you have received a reminder that your screening is due, please contact the surgery to arrange an appointment.💪🏼🩵

MMRV is now part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme, replacing the MMR vaccine.

It protects against measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox.

Chickenpox is very common and can sometimes lead to serious complications, so vaccination helps reduce the risk of serious illness as children grow.

You don’t need to do anything — your GP will be in touch when your child is due.
