Practice Innovations
Practical changes that improve access, safety and outcomes—co-designed with our community and grounded in evidence. Explore how we reduce inequalities, strengthen continuity and make it easier to get the right help first time.
Named Clinician & Micro-Teams
Continuity by design: we route bookings to your named GP or their micro-team and track equity so every group benefits.
Targeted Screening & Immunisations
Culturally tailored sessions and counselling, with outreach from CHWWs and easy, in-language booking for childhood vaccines and cancer screening.
Open Doors Clinic
A one-stop, trauma-informed MDT clinic (with BDP) for people who use drugs—longer appointments, same-day actions and clear follow-up.
Care Coordination & Health Navigation
Face-to-face and digital help to book appointments, complete forms and use the NHS App, with interpreting (including Pocket Talk) built in.
Power Up Movement Programme (PUMP)
Physical activity social prescribing matched to your health and culture, with free or low-cost local sessions and step-by-step support to get started.
Learning Disability & Dementia Health Checks
Annual clinics with reasonable adjustments and familiar staff, prioritising continuity, quieter spaces and communication support.
Greener Practice
Structured deprescribing and lower-carbon prescribing where clinically appropriate, alongside prevention-focused care—high-quality and better for the planet.
Research & Community Partnerships
Deep End leadership, RDNet studies and VCFSE collaborations that test ideas locally and turn proven improvements into everyday care.
Community Health & Wellbeing Workers (CHWW)
Local workers from BS2/BS5 visit homes and community venues to build trust, explain care in your language, and book immunisations and screenings.
Better Patient Waiting Room
A calmer, accessible space with a Health Pod, clear signage, quiet area and on-hand support from a Care Coordinator and interpreters.
