Accessible Information Standard

From 1st April the Accessible Information Standard is a new law to make sure that people who have a disability, impairment or sensory loss are given information they can easily read or understand.  This applies to all NHS and adult social care organisations.

For more information please follow the link below:

If you have any information or communication needs and how we can meet these please inform the practice in order for us to update your medical record.

If you would like any of our resources or leaflets in a different format (e.g. large print, easy read) then please let us know and we will try to meet your needs.
