Newsletter

New Quarterly Newsletter!
We are going to be sending out a newsletter just like this one on a quarterly basis to keep our patients updated with the latest news about the practice and hospitals within Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham.

PPG Meeting 
We would like to inform all our patients that our next patient participating group meeting will be held on teams on Wednesday 17th December 2025 at 19:00. Link will be shared with patients closer to this date. 

Travel Notice
It is mandatory that patient schedule their travel vaccine appointment at least 8 weeks prior to their departure date.  Any requests for travel consultation requested less than 8 weeks prior to the department will not be approved. This ensures that there is sufficient time for the vaccines to take effect and for any additional doses or boosters that maybe required. 
Non-NHS Vaccines – Some travel vaccines, such as yellow fever are not available on the NHS and are not provided by our practice. These vaccines must be obtained from the pharmacy such as Junction Pharmacy or a private travel clinic. 
NHS App

The NHS App gives you a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services. With full access, you can order repeat prescriptions and nominate a pharmacy where you would like to collect them, view your GP health record to see information like your allergies and medicines. If your GP has given you access to your detailed medical record, you can also see information such as test results, book and manage COVID-19 vaccinations, register your organ donation decision, choose how the NHS uses your data, view your NHS number and use NHS 111 online to answer questions and get instant advice or medical help near you. We recommend turning notifications on to get prompt updates from us.
We will be commencing a NHS App drop in session once a week from January 2026. This will be held to help patients navigate the NHS app and show benefits for patients of having access to NHS app.
