We are now an RCGP Active Practice!
We’re delighted to announce that our practice has officially been awarded RCGP Active Practice status!
This national accreditation recognises our commitment to reducing sedentary behaviour, increasing physical activity among both staff and patients, and playing an active role in our community.
A huge thank you to Conor for leading this work. Our application met all the criteria of the Active Practice Charter, and the review team described it as “impressive and inspiring, especially at such a challenging time for GP practices.” We are proud to receive this recognition.
What this means for our patients and staff
As an Active Practice, we are committed to:
- -encouraging healthier, more active lifestyles
- -promoting physical activity as a vital part of wellbeing
- -supporting our staff to stay active at work
- -contributing to a healthier, more active local community
You’ll soon see our Active Practice certificate, pledge poster, and the ‘Proud to be an Active Practice’ badge displayed in the practice and on our digital platforms.
Why this matters
Physical activity is one of the most powerful tools for improving both physical and mental health. By embedding this into our daily practice and conversations, we aim to help our community live healthier, happier lives.
We look forward to sharing more updates as we continue our Active Practice journey. Keep an eye out in the practice and on our website—and join us in celebrating this fantastic achievement!
