Cllr Alison Simpson

Mayflower Medical Group. Yesterday I met with the new provider, Fuller and Forbes Primary Care Group. They took over the five surgeries in April this year on a ten-year contract from NHS Devon, and are restructuring. I was able to raise the concerns of residents who have been in touch with me already around access and appointments, and ask for a clear timetable for when we will see an improvement. Mayflower will be communicating with patients about the restructuring, but in the meantime have agreed to answer any questions residents have and publish them on the practice website. Please submit your questions for Mayflower by filling in my form: fredforplymouth.com/mayflowe… I will keep residents informed about further meetings.

I am absolutely thrilled that Keir has appointed @AlistairCarns as the Minister for Veterans Affairs. Al Carns is a former Royal Marines Colonel and his dedication serving in uniform will be matched now by his service to our veterans in government.

I am in the process setting up my office, I will get access to my email address on Monday, and so please bear with me. My office will be up and running as soon as possible and we will share details of my first surgery and how to get in contact with me and my team.

2 days until polling day. Lovely afternoon canvass sessions. Thank you to everyone taking part. Change will only happen if you vote for it.

Sunny on the doors but residents bringing up NHS dentistry over and over again. People quite rightly outraged their children cannot see a dentist. Labour have an action plan to tackle this straight away 👇
