The proposed boundary extension is intended to ensure that patients living in newly developed housing areas have access to local GP services. Holmside Medical Group has a long-standing history of providing primary care to the surrounding community, and these new developments are a natural extension of the population we already serve. The proposed change simply incorporates these new residential areas, which currently fall just outside our existing practice boundary, allowing us to continue delivering accessible, high-quality care to our local community.
We want to hear from you. You can respond between the 27/07/2026 to 21/08/2026

RSV Vaccination Drop-In at the RVI
The RSV vaccination is now available at the RVI – no appointment needed.
Respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, is a common cause of cough and colds. Most children get it at least once before they’re two, and it is usually not serious.
However, some older people and very young children can be at greater risk. RSV can cause lung infections such as bronchiolitis.
The new vaccine offers protection for older people and pregnant mothers.
Drop In
The drop-in clinic at the RVI is for pregnant woman. Getting vaccinated as soon as possible from 28 weeks will provide the best protection for your baby.
