We are currently inviting donations of good quality and clean Books, Records, DVD's, CD's and Jigsaws.

If you are able to help they can be dropped into our collection bins at the following locations:

Our collections bins should be available to around 10th of April but depending on the level of support we may withdraw bins earlier if required, so make sure you drop off early to avoid missing out.

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
