Recently diagnosed with diabetes and feeling overwhelmed? 💙

A new diagnosis can bring lots of questions, worries and uncertainty. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

We’re holding Diabetes Support Sessions where you can drop in for friendly, informal support and advice.
📅 Tuesday 15th September | 9.15am–12.30pm
📅 Thursday 24th September | 12.15pm–3.30pm

The sessions are open to people who have recently been diagnosed with diabetes and may be unsure about what to do next, as well as anyone living with diabetes who would like to come along and chat.

We can talk about:
🥗 Eating well with diabetes
❤️ Looking after your overall health
🧠 Your mental wellbeing
🩺 The importance of regular health checks
💬 Any questions or concerns you may have

There’s no need to feel like you have to manage everything alone. Come along, have a chat and get the support you need.

Please book via Live Well With Diabetes Tickets, Multiple dates | Eventbrite

💚 World Su***de Prevention Day 💚

Today, we’re thinking of everyone affected by su***de - those who are struggling, those supporting someone they love, those grieving a loss, and those who have fought incredibly hard to still be here.

Sometimes the hardest words to say are “I’m not okay.”
Please know that you don’t have to face difficult thoughts alone.

Reach out. Check in on someone. Listen without judgement. A simple conversation can mean more than you realise.

📞 Samaritans – 116 123, free, 24 hours a day.

And if you are struggling, please reach out to us too. 💙💚

💙September is Su***de Prevention Month💜
🌀 This is your reminder: your story isn’t over. Even on the days when it feels impossible to believe— the world is better with you in it.
💛 You are not a burden. You are not alone. You are not invisible. 💙
It’s okay if things feel heavy right now.
💙 It’s okay if your version of “getting through the day” looks different than anyone else’s.

📢 **IMPORTANT PRACTICE UPDATE** 📢

We are currently experiencing a high level of staff sickness which is having an impact on our practice capacity.

We are working hard to maintain services and respond to patient requests as quickly as possible. However, some requests may take longer than usual to process, and you may experience longer waiting times when contacting the practice.

We kindly ask for your patience, understanding and kindness towards our team during this time. 💙

Please be assured that we are doing everything we can to minimise disruption and continue to provide safe and effective care to our patients.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

If you need to contact the surgery by phone, our team will continue to be available during our normal opening hours.

✅ Fair and consistent triage
Whether you contact us online or by telephone, all requests are assessed using the same clinical triage process and prioritised according to clinical need.

Important dates

• Ask My GP will close to new requests at 6:30pm on Tuesday 8 September 2026.
• From Wednesday 9 September 2026, all new online requests should be submitted through Accurx Patient Triage.

You can access Accurx via:
📱 The NHS App
💻 Our website: **[www.sullivanwaysurgery.nhs.uk](http://www.sullivanwaysurgery.nhs.uk)**

Thank you for your patience and support as we make this positive change to improve the way you access our services.
