Michelle Gillett is our PCSO for the Weaver and Cuddington area.  She believes that communication is key to a happy community whether that’s over the telephone, social media or emails. Once a week she will send a report of her community engagement which has enabled her to reach out to many elderly/vulnerable persons that don’t access social media - these are displayed on this website under 'Police Matters' on the Home page. Please feel free to have your say and call her (by phone, 07894-510064, or email) if you feel there is something which you feel she needs to address.

Save Our Sandiway Surgery

Following the decision by the Primary Care Commissioning Committee to close Sandiway Surgery, the SOS team has written to the Chair of the committee with two key questions:

Question: What process could be followed to appeal the decision of your committee?

• Her reply: There is no internal mechanism for appealing against the decision of the Primary Care Committee, as the decisions of the Committee are final in terms of CCG governance around Primary Care.
  
  

Question: Patients are contacting us to seek assurances that what Danebridge has promised to you, and been asked to deliver by your committee, will in fact happen. The practice sent a letter to ALL patients at their home addresses when they first started the process. We would like an assurance that this will be done at the end of the process to explain what the new service offering is for patients, particularly for patients finding difficulty using the remote services and accessing surgeries in Northwich for face to face appointments.

• Her reply: Whilst we cannot compel the Practice to send out a letter directly to all its patients, we will pass on that suggestion for them to consider.
  

Cuddington Parish Council is writing to the Chair and Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Borough Council to express its concerns, and make the following points:

• It would appear that DMP do not wish to continue to use the Sandiway surgery and will sell it when they are finally given the formal approval to withdraw from Sandiway in October 2021. It is also clear that having got this far DMP has the support of the local NHS in this matter.
  
  
• Patients have been told that the Northwich Care Partnership (NCP) and the Cheshire Integrated Care Partnership (ICP) will in effect replace the provision of local Primary Care in this Parish for those unable to access the surgeries 5 miles away and needing face-to-face primary care. These are of course the most vulnerable, young and elderly patients. The NCP and the ICP are in their infancy and are, as yet, unproven. CWaC we understand will be a key player in these organisations providing the link between primary care and community care. Our residents, and in particular DMP patients, need to be assured that CWaC is satisfied that it has management input and the resource to provide the support to fill the gaps in primary care and health and wellbeing that will inevitably arise as a result of the surgery closure.
  
  
• The presence of a doctor’s surgery is one of the key facilities looked for in the assessment of Key Service Centres, actually the first criterion on the list. All of the Key Service Centres in CWaC have a GP surgery. Cuddington will not have a GP surgery from October. This is a matter of great concern for the Parish Council and we believe that our status as a KSC should be a matter for consideration in the upcoming Local Plan review.
  
  

We wish to have a meeting with Cheshire West and Chester Council, with our Ward Councillors and also with your partners in the Integrated Care Partnership, to seek reassurances that our residents will not suffer a reduction in Primary Care for vulnerable residents in this isolated rural community. In addition we would like to discuss the implications of this proposal on our KSC status. In the meantime we believe that it is inappropriate for any significant housing development proposals to be approved.

If you or your family have any problems getting appointments, access to care or mediaction through Danebridge then make sure you formally report it to Danebridge Practice and copy in Christopher Leese Associate Director of Primary care at: This email address is being protected from spambots.
