The current demand for GP appointments is extremely high. We also have a GP off sick this week. This means that there is a longer than usual wait for appointments at the moment. We are all working as hard as we can to deal with your queries and appointment requests, so please be patient with us at this very busy time. Thank you.

**** PLEASE PARK CAREFULLY ****
We have had a few reports of cars being parked on bends along School Lane and adjoining roads. Please do not park your cars on bends as this causes issues for other traffic, especially larger vehicles. Thank you.
