February 2025 Newsletter

Welcome to the February edition of the Whitley Road Medical Centre newsletter!

As we move into the final stretch of winter, February is a time of renewal and looking ahead. While the colder weather continues, we encourage everyone to stay vigilant about their health, whether that’s keeping up with vaccinations, managing long-term conditions, or simply taking time for self-care.

This month, we remain committed to supporting your well-being.

We’re also continuing our Thursday NHS App Drop-In Clinics from 1pm, where our team can assist you with setting up and navigating the app to help manage your appointments, repeat prescriptions, and health records with ease.

February is also a month that brings awareness to Heart Health, and we encourage everyone to take small steps towards a healthier lifestyle—whether it’s increasing physical activity, making heart-friendly dietary choices, or checking in on your blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Our team is happy to support you with advice and health checks.

Additionally, we know that this time of year can be difficult for many, particularly with post-holiday financial pressures and the lingering winter blues. If you are struggling with your mental health, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we are here to support you and can guide you towards helpful resources.

As always, we welcome your feedback. If you have suggestions for future initiatives or ways we can improve our services, please let us know.

Wishing you all a healthy and positive February!

Warm regards,
Zak Toon
