Dr Chris Duffy, from the NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group

The latest quarterly public newsletter is now available from NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group (HMR CCG), which updates people on health and wellbeing information, latest news and gives residents the opportunity to have their say and get involved.

Livin’ it! is a twelve page quarterly public newsletter, featuring news of coronavirus local support helplines to help you stay safe and well, how GP practices have joined the digital age due to Covid-19 and how the CCG is encouraging parents to protect children from flu this winter.

You will also find stories on Kirkholt Medical Practice welcoming artwork from a local school, how it is still very important to book your cervical smear if you receive a letter from your GP and how you can access mental health and wellbeing support for children and young people.

Dr Chris Duffy, Chair of Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group (HMR CCG), said: “It has been a very difficult nine months for people and we are committed to providing local information and support for the residents in Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale. We are pleased to bring you the latest edition of Livin’ it! and welcome your feedback.
