In association with Parkrun and the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP) we are a Parkrun registered practice with Colney Lane Parkrun www.parkrun.org.uk/colneylane and would like to encourage all of our patients to get involved in this global initiative!
Parkrun is open to all, including those who are inactive or have health conditions.
Parkrun can have a positive impact on health and well-being.
