A Recap of Our April Wellness Event
Community Spirit and Well-being: A Recap of Our Wellness Event
Last month, our practice was buzzing with energy as we hosted our latest Wellness Event. It was a fantastic day dedicated to health, connection, and community support, and we want to extend a huge thank-you to everyone who attended and helped make the day such an inspiring success.
The event provided a wonderful opportunity for patients to meet local service providers, discover new ways to stay active, and learn more about the support networks available right here in our area.
A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Volunteers
An event of this scale would not be possible without the incredible support of our Patient Participation Group (PPG) volunteers. Their hard work behind the scenes and warm welcome to all visitors ensured the day ran smoothly.
Get Involved:
We are always looking for new members to join our PPG or assist at future events. If you would like to help shape the future of our practice and support the local community, we would love to hear from you.

The feedback from both attendees and our partner services has been overwhelmingly positive. Here are just a few highlights:
“It was very well organised and run—it was good to meet so many different people running groups in the area.”
“A brilliant event for networking… some great interactions were had and it was lovely to meet everyone.”
“It was such a well-earned break from being a carer… the drumming workshop was wonderful.”
