June is Men’s Health Month, a reminder that looking after your health is just as important as looking after everyone else around you.

Many health conditions can be treated more effectively when picked up early, but too often symptoms are ignored or health checks are delayed.

Simple steps can make a big difference:
• Stay active
• Attend routine health checks
• Speak up about your mental health
• Seek advice if something doesn’t feel right

Useful support is also available through:
• 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿
• 𝗠𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘂𝗺
• 𝗦𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘀

Please share this post or tag someone who may benefit from this reminder. 👇

Take care of yourselves and each other.

We wanted to share some recent figures regarding appointments at Greyfriars surgery.
Over the month of April, we have had a total of 4994 appointments. Out of these, 374 were missed without any prior notice. This has resulted in approximately 93 hours of clinical time being lost, time that could have been used to support other patients.
Missed appointments have a direct impact on the availability of care for everyone. If you are unable to attend, please let us know as soon as possible so we can offer the slot to someone else.

𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧. 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲.

This Stroke Awareness Month, we are reminding everyone how important it is to recognise the signs of a stroke and act quickly.

A stroke is a medical emergency. The sooner treatment is given, the better the outcome.

Remember 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧:
✅𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗲 – has the face dropped on one side?
✅𝗔𝗿𝗺𝘀 – can they raise both arms?
✅𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗰𝗵 – is speech slurred or difficult?
✅𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 – call 999 immediately

Other symptoms can include sudden confusion, vision problems, dizziness or a severe headache.

For advice, prevention tips and support, Stroke Association provides clear guidance and resources.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported our Alzheimer’s Society fundraiser! 💙

Thanks to the generosity of our patients, staff, local businesses and community, together we raised an incredible £1,124 for Alzheimer’s Society through raffle ticket sales, donations, and our staff quiz & bingo night.

Every ticket bought, prize donated, and contribution made has helped support people affected by dementia. We are so grateful for all of your kindness and support.

Together, we really can make a difference.

Share this post or tag someone who helped support the fundraiser so we can thank as many people as possible! 👏

This Dementia Action Week is a time to raise awareness, support those affected, and encourage people to seek help if they are worried about memory or changes in behaviour.

◾𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 that affects daily life
◾𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 or planning
◾𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 with time or place

This Sun Awareness Week, we are reminding everyone how important it is to protect your skin from harmful UV rays, even on cooler or cloudy days.

Too much sun exposure can increase your risk of skin damage and skin cancer, but simple steps can help keep you protected.

How to stay safe:
☑𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗣𝗙 𝟯𝟬+ 𝘀𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 and reapply regularly
☑𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝘀, 𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 and protective clothing
☑𝗦𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗲 between 11am and 3pm

UV rays can still cause damage even when you cannot feel the sun’s heat, so daily protection is key.

For more information and guidance, Cancer Research UK offers helpful advice on staying safe in the sun.

Looking after your skin now can help prevent problems later. Take care.
