School may be just around the corner, but there's still time to practice toilet training with your child. 🚽

Toilet training is more than just using the loo. It's about helping children know when they need to go, ask for help if they need it, manage clothing, wash their hands and build the confidence to take on new routines when they start school 📚

Every child develops at their own pace, and some children, including those with additional needs, may need more time and support than others - toilet training is all about progress, not perfection.

That's why the latest 'Toilet Training Talks' series with and .eyfs is packed with practical advice to help you support your child as they get ready for school, one step at a time 👣 💗

Apologies to our neighbours for any disturbance caused by our intruder alarm during the night. Thankfully it was a false alarm. We're very sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.

🌟 Thank you for your July feedback! 🌟

During July, 439 patients completed our Friends and Family Test, with an incredible 95% rating their experience as good or very good. 💙

Patients particularly praised our team for being:

✅ Kind and compassionate
✅ Friendly and professional
✅ Thorough and reassuring
✅ Efficient and helpful

We were also delighted that 71% of patients seeing a GP about an ongoing problem saw the same GP again—our highest continuity result so far.

We know there are still areas where we can improve, particularly around waiting times, appointment availability and communication. We review every response and use your feedback to help us make our services better.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to share their experience—and to our wonderful team for continuing to provide such thoughtful care. 🌟
