21.01.2022 Jeans for Genes Day #jeansforgenesau Sadly, 1 in 20 children are born with a birth defect or genetic disease. Genetic diseases are caused by errors in our DNA, the instructions for making ‘us’. DNA is the source of information for all the cells in our body, telling them what to do every second of every day. When something goes wrong with those instructions, it means some part of our body doesn’t function properly, leading to a life-threatening genetic disease like cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, metabolic disorders or even cancer. The best way to treat or cure many of these conditions is to correct the problem at the source, to correct the DNA. That’s what gene therapy does.

20.01.2022 With the COVID-19 situation constantly changing it is a good idea to stay informed and be prepared. We have put together a list of things to keep in mind so you can be prepared for the worst case scenario. If you have any health concerns or questions about COVID-19 please consult with your GP.

20.01.2022 As we approach Spring and peak pollen season , conditions such as hay fever and asthma can be mistaken for COVID-19 symptoms. It is important to understand the differences and to get control of your symptoms ahead of the season. Most people will know what their regular symptoms are but it is good to note the main difference: Viral symptoms are progressive and worsen quickly Allergies are reactive to the environment and tend to come and go... If you are unsure of your symptoms, consult with one of our GP's and get tested for COVID-19.

18.01.2022 #WeRememberThem In Flanders fields In Flanders fields the poppies blow... Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. John McCrae (18721918)

17.01.2022 Are you getting enough quality sleep? Continued sleep deficiency can cause poor physical and mental health as well as increase your risk of heart disease, kidney disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and stroke. Here are a few tips for a better sleep:... Keep a regular sleeping pattern - go to sleep and wake up at the same time each day Get the required amount of sleep - the average is 8 hours for adults but you may need more or less Relax before you go to bed - find your zen and turn off the tv, all devices and your mind to wind down Limit or avoid Alcohol, Caffeine and Cigarettes - alcohol may make you feel sleepy but will produce a poorer sleep If you continue to have trouble sleeping or always wake up tired, book an appointment with your doctor.

08.01.2022 From the Chevron to the Handlebar, we support whatever Mo you grow! Movember is an opportunity for men to learn and talk about their health and take action when needed. Here are the top 5 things men need to know, and do according to Movember Australia. 1 Spend time with people who make you feel good. Stay connected. Your mates are important and spending time with them is good for you. Catch up regularly, check in and make time.... 2 Talk, more. You don’t need to be an expert and you don’t have to be the sole solution, but being there for someone, listening and giving your time can be life-saving. 3 Know the numbers. At 50, talk to your doctor about prostate cancer and whether it’s right for you to have a PSA test. If you are of African or Caribbean descent or have a father or brother with prostate cancer, you should be having this conversation at 45. Know your numbers, know your risk, talk to your doctor. 4 Know thy nuts. Simple. Get to know what’s normal for your testicles. Give them a check regularly and go to the doctor if something doesn’t feel right. 5 Move, more. Add more activity to your day. Do more of what makes you feel good.
