Proud that #Bolton GPs have continued to see their own patients even those with #COVID19 symptoms in hours. Understandably this comes with apprehension #nhs #teambolton #primarycare

It can be hard to know how to move more with a health condition. The most important thing is that you find something you enjoy! Little and often can be really helpful - try breaking moving up into 5min chunks - it all counts!
