In just over 9 weeks we will be partnering once again with Heslington parkrun for a #parkrunpractice takeover. We hope to fill the roster with practice staff and patients. We have been lucky enough to run a couple of these events and they are always great fun… even in the torrential rain of March 2019! On 20th September Dr Abbie Brooks (GP partner) and Jenny Jackson (clinical pharmacist) will be enthusiastically run directing and organising the PMG team at parkrun. For those that are keen to get running, the NHS couch to 5k app is a great way to get started > https://www.nhs.uk/better-health/get-active/get-running-with-couch-to-5k/ This video sums up the joy of parkrun and the parkrun practice initiative: https://youtu.be/si2ng7yu23o?si=Np6mUo6v3RUNy4Mm ▶️ parkrun is a free, community event where you can walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate/cheer ▶️ It is 5k and takes place every Saturday morning at 9am- we have three local events (Heslington, York (on the Knavesmire) and New Earswick ▶️ Junior parkrun is 2k, dedicated to 4-14 year olds and their families and you can join in every Sunday on the Knavesmire at 9am ▶️ No one is too slow for parkrun, there is no pressure at all to run and everyone is so friendly. If you are not sure about running/walking then join us to volunteer or cheer (or bake cakes?!)

Surgery site opening hours
Opening hours over July and August
Our staff need and deserve a break with their families and this often means that we are at minimum safe staffing across some weeks over the Summer period. We ensure that there is a safe rota within the clinical and reception teams but want to avoid lone working at the smaller surgeries.
