Breathing Space will once again run The Bereavement Journey course locally in September 2026.

We have run this course 3 times and it is suitable for past bereavements or more recent (past year) experience. Groups find the videos and small discussion groups really helpful and often go on to meet socially after the course which is so helpful for those feeling alone.
The bereavement Journey Course will be starting September 3rd and running for 7 weeks.

📅 Missed Appointments – June 2026

In June, 769 appointments at our Practice were missed without being cancelled.

🩺 298 of these were GP appointments, resulting in 75 hours of GP time being lost. That's time that could have been used to care for other patients waiting for an appointment.

💙 You can help us reduce wasted appointments by:

✅ Cancelling if you no longer need your appointment by calling our 24/7 cancellation line: 01664 503027
✅ Cancelling or changing your appointment online via our Appointments Admin Request form.
✅ Checking your booked appointments in the NHS App.
✅ Adding your or your family members' appointments to your diary or phone calendar.
✅ Letting us know if you change your mobile number so you continue to receive appointment reminders.

Every cancelled appointment gives someone else the opportunity to be seen.

Thank you for helping us make the best use of NHS appointments for everyone. 💙
