Coffee Mornings
Our regular coffee mornings take place on the first Tuesday of each month from 10.30am - 11.45am in the Surgery's River Suite. The entrance is through the door next to the chemists, then up the stairs, or by lift, to the first floor, to the door next to Boyd Physiotherapists.

Neville Lewcock who has made such a success of organising our speakers is busy working on the programme for 2010.  The first meeting is on the 5th January.

Our Coffee Mornings will continue to be held on 1st Tuesday of each month in the Surgery's River Suite, from 10.30am to 11.45am.  The entrance is through the door next to Boots the Chemists and then up to the 1st floor, by lift or stairs.  The River Suite is next to Boyd Physiotherapy.

Our regular coffee mornings will continue to take place on the first Tuesday of each month, from 10.30am - 12.00pm in the Surgery's River Suite.  The entrance is through the door next to the chemist's, then up the stairs, or lift, to the first floor, to the door beside Boyd Physiotherapy. 

These are sociable occasions when members of the Friends can catch up with friends old and new, and learn of the most recent plans for the Friends.  We aim to have at least one in three of these meetings addressed by a speaker.

As there are a limited number of parking spaces available for patients with appointments at the surgery, we would ask those of you who are attending a Coffee Morning, to park in one of the nearby public car parks so that patients can still park to see their doctors. Thank you.

FUTURE EVENTS  for Coffee Mornings please see panel on the right

BROCKENHURST COLLEGE LUNCH
We are hoping to book places at one of Brockenhurst College's Catering Department's lunches.  If you are interested please let Marie Mudie know. These are very popular and therefore, hard to book so it is essential that we know numbers. We would hope to be able to arrange lifts for people without transport.

Lunch at Lanes
Would you like to join other 'Friends' and have lunch at Lanes?  If so, please contact Marie Mudie on 01590 673473.

Hospital Visits
One of the suggestions made in our recent questionnaire was a request for a guided hospital tour. 
The Lymington Hospital League of Friends has kindly offered to facilitate this.  An ideal group would be about ten people; dependant on numbers more than one tour could be arranged.  If you are interested please contact Marie Mudie.
