NQS ‘Doctrin’ Service has closed for the time being.

Practice Manager @ New Queen Street Surgery – The practice has made the decision to close’ doctrin’ for the remainder of the week due to capacity issues. 
They have a couple of GP partners covering it on their none working days but this is not sustainable for the remainder of the week.

Lakeside’s central team are preparing some comms to go out on the website. 
This is not a decision that has been taken lightly but is a necessary one for patient safety.

The Bower TowPath Concerns & Issues….

Here we go again, Social Media rules the waves….without any understanding what-so-ever.
So I’ll ‘try’ to explain (not excuse) the situation –
Our Bower Towpath should be a wonderful walk for hundreds that use it daily, including myself, the ‘path’ is ‘owned’ by 4 different authorities, Cambs Highways, FDC, Mid-Level Commissioners and a Charity.

To even attempt to get all four around a table I can asure has been tried.
So ‘we’ Councillors have to approach Fenland District Council to service the whole Pathway. As spring turns to summer, the area gets overgrown, I have requested this be looked at some 10 days ago along with other Councillors, the work has to be scheduled into the contractors other workload which is already heavy at this time of the year.
Yesterday the contactor ‘Tivoli’ sent their ‘man’ and he spent some 6 hours strimming and clearing the area as best as he could (not the overhanging tree’s) and he cleared up afterwards.
No thanks required or expected as usual…..abused ….

After the Strim… It all takes time, please be patient…..
