Badgerswood Surgery is pleased to have a new piece of kit thanks to a local fundraising group and a grant from Councillor Richard Millard. Alongside the Forest Surgery, we used the money to buy a dermatoscope – a portable device used to examine skin complaints.
With thanks to Councillor Richard Millard and our Patient Participation Group
We were able to make this purchase thanks to a £500 grant from Councillor Millard, Leader of East Hampshire District Council and a local member for Headley. He was approached for support by the Patient Participation Group (PPG) which raises money to buy medical equipment for the surgeries. Over the years the PPG has raised more than £28,000, including through grants from EHDC, donations and events.
Celebrating another innovation at Badgerswood and Forest Surgeries
Dr Helen Sherrell received the cheque from Yvonne Parker Smith, chairman of the PPG, and members of the group. Yvonne said: “Forest Surgery has been the hub for COVID vaccinations and has carried this out wonderfully well. “We are lucky to have such wonderful surgeries in Bordon and Headley and we try to raise funds for equipment, which is not funded by the NHS, which benefits the patients.”
Councillor Richard Millard said: “I was happy to use some of my councillor grant to pay for this fabulous piece of kit. “It will really help the doctors in their work and will be a great help to patients who might otherwise have had to go to hospital to get minor skin blemishes examined properly. “Well done to the PPG for their continued support of our surgeries. They do incredible work alongside the local doctors and NHS professionals to help keep our residents safe and healthy.”
