Thank you to the CCG who have provided us with clinical support, our COVID positive clinicians who are working remotely from home and other staff members who have worked extra to help us to maintain our service levels.
 
We are hoping we will be able to continue at our usual capacity however please keep checking our Facebook page for updates.
 
If you are unwell and do need urgent care, there are however a number of other options available:
 
• NHS 111 – the service is free on the phone or online 24/7. Depending on the situation, the NHS 111 team can connect you to a nurse, emergency dentist or GP or arrange an ambulance if they think you need one.
