Following a ballot of its members, the British Medical Association confirmed that a period of GP collective action would start on 1 August 2024.
Collective action is not the same as industrial action, but means that some GPs may stop or reduce certain work.
The NHS is asking the public to continue to come forward as usual for their care.
If you have an appointment at the surgery, you should attend as normal - unless told otherwise.
We will remain open during our normal hours, however you may be directed to other local services.
