Help the NHS to reduce medicines waste – ‘together we can make a difference’

The local NHS is urging patients to carry out simple tasks to help reduce medicines
waste. These include checking how much prescription medication you have at home
before ordering more and checking the expiry date on your medicines.

For further tips and advice visit the StayWell – BOB website which includes five short videos on how to reduce medicines waste.

You can use the NHS APP to order and manage your prescription medication

If you need help with the NHS app, our friendly Patient Paticipation Group volunteer Ian will be on hand to assist where he can and redirect you to our practice staff if needed. These are being held in conjunction with Witney Library and will be running on the first Tuesday of each month for the next few months from 10:00 – 12:00. Please see the session dates below

– September 3rd 2025

Booking is essential to ensure your space. Please call 01865 815207 or visit Witney Library in person to book a half-hour appointment. Please bring your devices (laptops, tablets, phones etc) to your appointment so we can show you on your own devices how to access the Windrush Medical Practice’s online services.

Please note: this service is only available to patients of the Windrush Medical Practice.
