PARKING AND TRANSPORT TO THE SURGERY
Parking at the practice is limited, so staff and patients who live near enough are encouraged to walk or cycle to the practice.
Public transport is limited in this area but we try and encourage patients and staff to use public transport when it is possible.

Normal bus fares apply and concessionary bus passes can still be used.
This taxi service must be booked at least one day in advance of travel and you must register for the service initially

TRANSPORT TO THE HOSPITAL
Patient transport has changed recently so if you are booking transport for a hospital appointment then it is likely you will be asked a number of questions to see if you qualify for patient transport.
Once you have answered these questions if you are unhappy with the outcome we would suggest that you contact PALS (The Patient Advice and Liason Service) on Freephone 08000320202.
