Councillor Lucy Lee writes about the latest Drop-In Dr Clinic last Friday at the Thames View Community Hub on Bastable Avenue:
“A great day of holistic health intervention at our Drop-in Dr Clinic on Friday – continuing to ensure easier access to GP’s, statutory services, Reflexology, and an amazing network of community support. I was also delighted that Nesil Caliskan our MP for Barking was able to join us today.
The appreciation from residents shown to us each time we deliver a clinic gets me every time (on this occasion I received home made lemon curd thanks David!).
There is honesty nothing more important than expressing care and consideration for one another in everything you do.
I’m so super grateful to have an amazing community of people around me who understand the positive impact of partnership work, instantly coming together to empower all who come into contact with the pop-up clinics. As the African proverb states: “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”.
You are truly appreciated Jagan, Parissé, Zoinul, Nadia, Sarah, Rachel, Almu, Emma, Alina, Charles & the Thames View Hub team, along with the Aurora team and Barking Riverside Limited.
The next drop-in session will be in January. We’ll post more information here as soon as it’s confirmed.
