Surgery Patient Participation Group - Upchurch & Rainham
Missed Appointments
It was reported at the April meeting, that Doctors within the group were concerned with the number of missed (i.e. NOT cancelled) appointments during the last three months (153 to be precise).
If you find you are unable to keep an appointment please give the surgery as much notice as as possible by Tel: 01634 231423.
Given the ever increasing demand this may allow your slot to be re-allocated to another patient.

Drs L. & V. Shaunak Retirement
The sum of £320 was collected and the Chair, Ray Kemsley presented the couple with vouchers for London Theatreland, 6 bottles of good quality red wine and a bouquet of flowers as a token of patients appreciation which I am sure is shared by so many of you for their dedication courtesy and patience over such a long period.

Upchurch Village Fete 2017 - Chairman's Note
The 4th Village fete will soon be upon us, it comes around so quickly! As always we look to provide a fun day out and encourage fund raising at the various stalls provided by our local organisations and groups.
The Rock Choir enjoys performing at our event and is looking forward to entertaining you again this year. Other musical entertainment will be The Syncopators Jazz Band, performing in the Beer tent provided this year by The Crown, our volunteer rock band The Lynks and Holywell School choir. A new act this year comes from the Kent Musical Theatre Society promoting local productions. Sadly Micky the Magician cannot be with us but we do have Mrs Back To Front coming along to entertain the children. The Sky Birds of Prey were very popular last year and are returning with their birds and demonstrations. There will be maypole dancing by our Brownies and Guides and hopefully enough teams for a friendly tug of war. We have a big raffle with the first prize of a Thames Lunch Cruise for two! The runners up get other superb days out. Make sure you get your tickets, available from the committee, The Crown or on the day.
We would like to thank in advance our various financial sponsors. Once again we have the support from local businesses such as Kent Trade Frames, Upchurch River Valley Golf Course, Hidsons, Grandsens, Kinloch & Sons and JASCOM Electrical Contractors. We also thank The Barnyard, The Edith May and Amethyst Garden Centre the donation of prizes (as received at time of writing). We also thank our Swale Councillors Gerry Lewin and John Wright for their generous grants towards our day.
We hope that you can come along and enjoy a day out whilst making it a successful fund raising event for your village community.
Note: Dogs are welcome, as long as they are kept on a lead!
See you there!
