Coffee morning

DEMENTIA CAFÉ OPENING

The Abbeyview Surgery team have been working with Tonic Health, Spalding and Crowland Cares to improve the services available for patients with Dementia and the support provided for Carers in our area.

Following the successful introductory open coffee morning last month and as a result of this collaborative working, we are pleased to announce that a DEMENTIA CAFÉwill open in Crowland Pavilion (just off the playing field) on Thursday, 7thMarch.  The Café will open every week on a Thursday between 10am and 12 Noon.  

There is no need to book – it is a drop in session for Dementia patients and their Carers.

THE PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW

The Parliamentary Review is a publication which showcases and shares best practice as a learning tool to individuals in the public and private sector throughout the Commonwealth. Abbeyview Surgery has been invited to participate in The Parliamentary Review.  We have been told we are the only GP Practice in the Country to have been selected and published to date. Dr Banerjee, Dr England and our Business Manager, Helen Herbert, will be attending Westminster during March to attend the launch at an evening to celebrate hard work and leadership.
