Northern Gas Works will begin roadworks on Great North Road starting the week of 5th May. Four-way traffic lights at The Grove junction will be in place for around two weeks, then will move further along the road for ten more weeks. Please allow extra travel time to avoid delays and help clinicians stay on schedule.

NHS funding to individual GP practices has not risen above inflation in many years. Whereas costs have increased.
Previously, the practice would have been given Winter Funding to help fund a locum GP over high demand periods. Now this funding is allocated to provide our patients with extra appointments at Urgent Treatment Centres (previously known as walk in centres) and at the Primary Care Network (200 Osborne Road).
We are at full capacity in terms of what we can offer both financially and safely.
