If you need to speak to a GP, stay safe and don’t just turn up.

Phone your GP surgery or call NHS 111 first and they will give you advice about what to do.

Some people in Somerset aged 80+ have started to receive an NHS letter asking them to book a Covid-19 vaccination in Bristol. Anyone who would prefer an appointment closer to home, should wait to be contacted by their GP surgery who will arrange one at their local hub.

Smoking attacks our lungs and makes it harder to breathe. And looking after our health has never been more important.

Handwashing is still important to protect yourself and others from the spread of coronavirus. Remember, when you get home from being outside, wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds.

A huge thanks to Ella-Louise who raised just under £100 to buy treats for our colleagues at Musgrove Park as part of her @Girlguiding Brownies 'Charity and Caring' badge. The treats have been distributed across the hospital and have brought lots of cheer! 💙

Remember your face covering when:

➡️ using public transport
➡️ visiting a hospital
➡️ in enclosed public spaces like shops

A face covering protects others and helps to reduce the spread of coronavirus.
