⚠️ IT issues in GP practices in Surrey and Sussex

Some GP practices across Sussex, Surrey and Kent are being affected by IT issues preventing them from accessing some clinical systems. We are aware this is causing disruption for GP practices and technical teams are working urgently to resolve issues.

GP practices are still open as normal, but some are experiencing issues with connecting to the internet. Please continue to contact your practice and attend your appointments as you normally would, unless your GP surgery contacts you directly.

Thank you for your understanding and kindness towards practice staff, who are doing their best to support patients during this time.
