Easter Raffle
Our delicious Easter Raffle (in aid of purchases for the patients at the surgeries) is now underway. Tickets are just 50p each and available from the receptionists. The draw will take place on March 27th. Good luck….
200 Club
New members to the 200 Club are always very welcome. It costs just £15 a year, paid by standing order. Every month, we award two prizes—one of £100 and another of £15. All proceeds go toward buying equipment for the surgeries that the NHS does not supply. Please enquire at reception if you wish to join.
Our lucky March winners are:
First prize of £100 Andrew Lawrence (winning number 55)
Second prize of £15 Kylie Stent (winning number 85)
The draw was made by our receptionist Suzanne.
Tabletop /Book donations
Please hand in any good quality books and items for sale at the surgeries. Again, funds raised through these donations provide all the ‘extras’ needed. Thank you for your donations to both!
Health /Information Talk about Kidneys – how to look after yours!
We are delighted to invite you to our next ‘Health/Information talk’ at Purton Surgery on Thursday April16th at 7.30pm. Melanie Philips and her team will be returning to lead the evening. Melanie is the Sepsis, Acute Kidney Injury Lead at the Great Western Hospital and provided a very well received and informative talk about Sepsis in October. There will be 40 free tickets available from March 16th. If you would like to join the evening, please pick a ticket up at the reception desks at either surgery and add your name to the list when you collect one. Please bring your ticket with you on the night.
We need you!
Following the retirement of several of our committee members, and our thanks go to them for their sterling contributions over the years, the opportunity has arisen for new members to join the Purton Patient Group (PPG). More information about the work of the PPG will be given at the next Health Talk in April and will also be available as a leaflet from reception at the surgeries.
Anyone who is a registered patient at the surgery in Purton or Cricklade Greengable and who would like to make a positive difference to the surgery is eligible to join, so please do give it some thought. We really would love to hear from you….
Thank you!
