CARTMEL SURGERY would really like to recruit more members for their Patient Participation Group (PPG). Their next meeting is on Thursday 19th May at 2pm at the surgery for an hour.
The PPG group is an unpaid group to share and test out ideas for new services that the Surgery would like to try and also to give robust feedback about how patients feel about the Surgery and its services. It is hoped to run 2 PPG groups (with some members attending both) with one group meeting face-to-face and the other as an online forum to increase participation and diversity.
Anyone who is interested should contact the Surgery (by any means) to discuss which group they wish to join and to make arrangements. ... See MoreSee Less
Did you know that Cartmel still has its own 'jail'?
Now a quirky holiday cottage, Village Lock-Ups were introduced in the 18th & 19th centuries as places for rogues, drunks, and miscreants to be detained until they could be brought before the area magistrate.
And Cartmel's very own Village Lock-Up has even been awarded listed status!
