 If you are phoning to book an appointment with a Nurse or Doctor, please note this will be provided as a telephone consultation in the first instance.  Our receptionists will be asking all patients questions regarding symptoms prior to booking any appointments.

Do not come into the surgery to request a repeat prescription.  Put your request in the box in the foyer, or request on-line. Your prescription will be sent to the pharmacy of your choice - you should not come to the practice to collect it.

Get Support - Get Involved - Local People Helping Local People 

 During these challenging times, Arden Academy has set up a website which, together with local people, local businesses and community groups, aims to act as a central hub for local community information.  As well as the website becoming a "go to" for information and advice, it offers people the opportunity to register as volunteers; people who then contact us through the website for assistance can be linked with volunteers offering the required help.

 

How can you help?

Information which you feel is useful to local people can be submitted in the following ways: *Website - Contact Us - https://www.ardencommunitygroup.org/   

* Email - ardencommunitygroup@arden.solihull.sch.uk 

* Facebook - Arden Community Group

As well as being published on Facebook and Twitter, this information will be uploaded onto the website and made accessible to everyone.    This applies to individuals, businesses and community groups.  We would ask you to make people and local groups, where possible, aware of this service so that they too can submit useful information.

This is a time when our special community must come together – so please get involved.
