Suffolk residents are being asked to keep looking out for each other and combat Covid-19 by wearing a face-covering in shops from tomorrow (Friday 24 July).

GP practices in Norfolk and Waveney have come out highly in the national annual survey of patient satisfaction.

Overall, they score higher than the national average in a range of important indicators such as helpful staff, access to appointments and satisfaction with their care.

There are lots of benefits to being active outside, and after months of restricted movement, it can feel great to head outdoors for some fresh air and a bit of exercise.

But coronavirus is still with us, and while some of us are ready to head out there are still concerns for many of us about protecting our health outside the home.

Children, young people, their families, and school staff in Norfolk and Waveney are to benefit from two further dedicated Mental Health Support Teams working with their schools.

The Norfolk and Waveney Health and Care Partnership (formerly known as the Sustainability and Transformation Partnership) has been granted funding for two additional Mental Health Support Teams which will be based in South Norfolk and Lowestoft. These will be in addition to teams that started in January this year in North Norfolk and King’s Lynn.
