    Patient Participation Group Newsletter

    Summer 2019 Edition Patient Participation Group Newsletter Your Practice (Waterfoot Medical Practice) We’re changing our name! With new GP partners coming on board at the practice we have decided it’s time for a name change. In consultation with our Patient Participation Group we decided not to stray too far from our current name of Waterfoot Group of Doctors and are opting for Waterfoot Medical Practice. Waterfoot Wildflower Meadow You may have noticed the grass around Waterfoot Medical Practice is being left to grow this summer. This is to encourage the wild flowers to grow for the benefit of the local wildlife, our patients and our staff. We will be managing this area with a yearly cut in early September. The cut grass will then be seeded with a plant called Yellow Rattle and we expect a flower filled meadow to develop over the next few years. If you would like any further information, or you would like to help with the development of the meadow, please get in touch with us at the surgery. Keeping Active Over the summer months our Doctors have been busy taking part in physical challenges, and all for a good cause. On 23rd June Dr Narayan took part in the Big NHS Walk where NHS Trust staff and the local community walked 12 miles whilst raising as much money as possible for our local hospitals. Dr Hinchliffe took on the Race for Life Pretty Muddy on 13th July to raise money for cancer research. This involved racing her way through 5km of muddy obstacles.

    44 Kingston Crescent HELMSHORE 44 Kingston Crescent HELMSHORE 44 Kingston Crescent HELMSHORE 44 Kingston Crescent HELMSHORE Basking in countryside and set beneath the friendly outline of Tor Hill, No. 44, Kingston Crescent, in the sought-after village of Helmshore, is a home where relaxation begins before you even set foot through the front door. Park up in the garage and soak up the peace and quiet of this home’s tranquil setting, before making your way to the front entrance. Step into the porch, where diamond leaded windows deliver light and views through. Tiled flooring is practical underfoot, whilst stone quoins in the walls are an attractive feature. www.wainwrightshomes.com 2/3 Flowing Spaces Welcome home. From the porch, step into a broad and bright entrance hall, where the warm and inviting lounge is located through the first door on the left. A soft, neutral palette dresses the walls, with brown carpet underfoot. In wintertime, return home and curl up in front of the coal-effect gas fire. Light streams in through two windows, as the living room wraps around into a dining room, with diagonally styled solid wood flooring underfoot. Framing views over the front garden and quiet neighbourhood beyond, the window captures a slice of the peace and quiet life that Kingston Crescent affords. www.wainwrightshomes.com 4/5 Delightful Dining Flow through onto the tiled floor of the kitchen where integrated appliances include a fitted fridge-freezer, professionally-cleaned electric oven and gas hob and there is plumbing for a dishwasher and washing machine. Enjoy a snack at the breakfast bar or sit with a glass of wine and chat as the evening meal is prepared.

Article 1 of Protocol 1 The right of peaceful enjoyment of possessions and protection of property. Site This application relates to a site of approx 1.8ha in area at the head of Cowpe Brook valley. The site is occupied by a series of traditional stone-built mill buildings, with later alterations/additions and other ancillary buildings, totalling 10,300 sq m of floorspace. Besides these buildings, which vary in height up to 3-storeys, there is a 50m high chimney stack and a lodge which occupies broadly a third of the site. This complex is prominent as viewed from Cowpe Road, to which the application site has a 300m frontage on the north side, from a lane running along its west side and from the rising open land around it. From the lodge flows a watercourse which is for the most part culverted as it runs through the application site, with Mill Building B bridging over it.
