Practice closed for Easter Bank Holidays

We’ll be closed on Friday 3rd April 2026 and Monday 6th April 2026 for the Easter Bank Holidays.

If you’re not feeling well and need to speak to a medical professional, contact NHS 111 by calling 111 from your telephone or visiting 111.nhs.uk. In an emergency always call 999.

Meningitis B

You may have seen reports of an outbreak of Meningitis among university students in Kent. It is reported that this is an outbreak of Meningitis B.

We have not received instruction from NHS England to offer Meningitis B outside of the normal vaccination programme at this time. We will be contacting eligible patients who are missing other Meningitis vaccinations (ACWY) to invite them in for vaccination. 

Sick (fit) notes

If you’ve been off sick for more than 7 days

To request a sick note:

If you’ve been off sick for 7 days or less

If you’re off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you’ve been ill. Instead, they can ask you to confirm that you’ve been ill. You can do this by filling in a form yourself when you return to work. We call this self-certification.

Find out more about sick notes on the NHS website.
