Church Street Health Centre, and the branch surgeries in Earith & Bluntisham, is due to close on 30 September 2020.

All patients will be transferred to another local GP practice when the surgery closes and will be contacted and updated on the transfer process.

Dr Lui and the practice team would like to reassure patients that they are committed to ensuring all patients have access to high quality GP care in the future and will help to provide a smooth transfer for patients as the move to their new GP practice.

An online patient meeting will take place on Skype on Wednesday 15 July at 16:00 – 17:30. Further details on how to join will be available on the website.

From now until September patients will continue to receive GP services from Church Street Health Centre in the same way as they do now.

Further information for patients is also available on the practice website: www.churchstreethealthcentre-somersham.nhs.uk

Over the Bank Holiday weekend our website moved to new servers and there may be the odd teething issue, please bear with us as we sort out any glitches.

When you are clapping this week for the NHS please share a thought (and a clap and cheer) for all the people volunteering in Bluntisham to help others in Bluntisham during this difficult time.

Currently we have 62 active volunteers helping 47 households in the village.  All of this is being done free of charge and relies on the goodwill of these people.  Now that more people are returning to work there may be a need to call on more people to help with volunteering as some of our volunteers will be required to return to work.  If you can help and are willing to help out with a bit of shopping, a goodwill phone call or to collect a prescription for someone in the village please contact me.  bluntishamclerk@gmail.com or call 07725 308115

Bluntisham Parish Council are expecting government guidance on holding meetings remotely, and NALC will also produce further guidance as needed.  In the meantime, if local councils do not hold meetings and take decisions by email or other remote methods NALC feels it is likely that afterwards if there were a challenge that the court will accept that exceptional times called for exceptional measures.  In the absence of government guidance, we would suggest for now only taking decisions remotely for truly urgent issues.  In this case, local councils should evidence their decision making as best they can, for example by asking councillors to confirm their votes by email to the clerk for the clerk to keep as a record of the decision.
