Food Donation

On Wednesday 4th September, Norton Place hosted a successful drop-in event for food and book donations. The generous contributions have been placed in the pantry box located just outside the building, to the left of the conservatory, and are available for anyone in need. A heartfelt thank you to all who donated and helped make this event a success! We would like to thank the COPD Community Connectors for volunteering to get the donations.

Book Donations

Norton Place has a book library located outside the building, to the left of the conservatory. Patients are welcome to donate books they no longer read and take any that interest them. If you would like to contribute, please drop the books off at our reception during our regular opening hours. All book donations are welcome.

Gardening Group

A gardening group is held at Norton Place.

This is a voluntary group where any patients from one of the surgeries within the PCN can attend. This encourages patients to socialise, team build and feel benefits from the group's achievements.

This is every Friday from 10:30am until 12pm at Norton Place, feel free to pop in anytime during this. A social prescriber attends every few weeks from the PCN.

Getting a blood pressure check is the first step to preventing heart attacks and strokes. High blood pressure is a major cause of both these diseases. Yet, it usually has no symptoms until it’s too late. That's why it’s known as ‘the silent killer’. Knowing your numbers means you can start making healthy lifestyle changes. Or, if necessary, you can start taking medicines to lower your blood pressure to a healthy level. So, it’s essential to make the time to check your blood pressure to see if it’s under control.
