Welcome

Set in splendid countryside with oak-lined fairways, open areas, changes of level and picturesque views, and with excellent catering and hospitality to compliment the golf, Retford Golf Club is an all-year-round favourite for many golf societies and casual players.

The fundamental role of the school nurse is to improve children and young people’s health and wellbeing by:

• leading, delivering and evaluating preventative services and universal public health programmes (as set out in the Healthy Child Programme 5-19) for school-aged children and young people, within both school and community settings
• delivering evidence-based approaches and cost effective programmes or interventions that contribute to children and young people’s health and well-being (e.g. reduction in childhood obesity, reduction in under 18 conception rates, reduction in prevalence of chlamydia and management of mental health disorders (such as depression and conduct disorder); co-ordinating services, referring to other agencies and delegating within the team to maximise resources and utilise the expertise of other skilled professionals)
• supporting a seamless transition into school, from primary to secondary school and transition into adulthood
• managing the interaction between health and education so that the child or young person enjoys good health and well-being (including emotional health and wellbeing) therefore achieving optimal education
• leading support for children and young people who have complex and/or additional needs including providing or co-ordinating support, education and training for families, carers and school staff
• identifying children and young people in need of early help and where appropriate providing support to improve their life chances and prevent abuse and neglect. This includes working with children and young people at risk of becoming involved in gangs or youth violence
• contributing as part of a multi-agency team, to the response for children, young people and families who have multiple problems.

Child health service

The School Health team is an excellent first point of contact for school aged children, young people and their parents who need health advice or information. They have a good knowledge of other statutory agencies and voluntary organisations that can offer advice and support related to health issues.

The Tuxford Family Fitness Sessions offer the opportunity for families to exercise together. Come along and take part in the beginner and intermediate fitness sessions and take advantage of the free multi sports sessions for the children.

Sessions take place on Mondays (term time only) from 6pm to 7pm. Cost is 3.50 per adult and children attend for free.

Please note: Children exercising must be accompanied by an adult participating in the fitness class.

Due to a recent surge in patient calls, our current telephone system is working to maximum capacity and is no longer sustainable for us to meet our usual prompt response times. We sincerely apologise to all our patients for the frustrations and inconvenience this is causing.

As a result, the practice has made a huge financial investment in a brand new telephone system. We are awaiting the new data lines being installed by BT as soon as possible but we are hopeful that this will be within the next 6-8 weeks.

As an interim solution, we have diverted some of our incoming calls to the Misterton site which will disperse the volume on the incoming calls and allow patients to get through to the practice much quicker.

From Monday 3rd August 2020, staff will be answering telephone calls ONLY from the Misterton surgery site. We are unable to deal with face to face enquiries at this time,

However please can we stress that the surgery remains closed to patients and no clinical staff will be on site at Misterton. We will be unable to answer the door so please do not attend the surgery unless posting a prescription.

This is the first stage of our managed approach to re-opening sites in the coming weeks. Please monitor the practice website or further details.

From Monday 3rd August for patients registered at misterton and Gringley, please call your usual telephone number: 01427 890206

PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND MISTERTON SURGERY IN PERSON.

Opening Hours
Monday: 08:30 - 18.30
Tuesday: 08:30 - 20:00
Wednesday: 08:30 - 18:30

COVID UPDATE: TRAINING WILL RESTART ON AUGUST 22ND FOR ALL MEMBERS. 

training will restart this Saturday, 22nd August for all members at the new time of 1-4pm at Valley BPL.

As we will be restricted on numbers for the timebeing we need places to be booked in advance in order to comply with track and trace requirements, preferably on Spond, but until everyone has access to the app we will also allow bookings via Facebook Messenger to our Worksop Falcons page.

The new measures we will implement, which are in line with Badminton England guidance are as follows :

- use of hand sanitiser on every entry to / exit from the sports hall and at regular intervals between play

- 2m gaps between seats (no benches) spread throughout the hall rather than condensed to one side

- group sizes of no more than 6 per court which will not change throughout the session (max of 24 players per training session)

- each group will be allocated a number of shuttles which they will not share with other groups and they will be cleaned regularly

- a new one way system (clearly marked) to move around the sports hall, and desk position for sign in, will be in place

- no handshakes after play finishes (other "etiquette" options will be enforced to show respect for other players)

- outer doors will be opened regularly for natural ventilation

- the changing rooms and access to the school will be locked and toilet facilities we can use will now be in the main sports centre and are being monitored and cleaned regularly.

The cost of the sessions and payment process will remain unchanged for now. When lockdown meant we had to close in March we had two sessions remaining of that month and we will restart with two sessions remaining in August, so there will be no further charge for these sessions (assuming the March payment wasn't outstanding). Therefore the first payment will be due on the first weekend of September.

Those who already have access to Spond will be sent an automatic message later this evening to book a place. If anyone else needs access to Spond please let us know and we can send a download link.

After more than four months in lockdown, I am sure you are looking forward to the gradual easing of the restrictions that have dominated our lives since the end of March. Unfortunately due to Covid-19 most of the TSD official events of 2020 have to be cancelled.

But as we slowly move into or new ‘normal’, it is increasingly clear that coronavirus will still be part of our lives for months to come. We know from speaking to our instructors and members that many of you are concerned about the long-term effects of the pandemic on your family wellbeing, finances, the health of your relatives and the state of the economy.

We will prioritise safety and hygiene in class when we resume training, hopefully in September. Changing facilities remain closed. Please make sure you/your child arrives already in their Tang Soo Do uniform. To maintain social distancing, coaches will no longer be applying tape to earrings that have not been taped over by parents/guardians. If you/your child are not dressed appropriately, they will not be allowed to participate.

In order to protect all coachers, participants and their families, we have the right to refuse entrance to any child and/or member if they are showing signs and symptoms of COVID-19. This includes a high temperature, continuous cough and a loss/change in sense of small or taste.

Both the UKTSDF and the government do not recommend the use of masks.face coverings during sports activities. All forms of face coverings may restrict breathing efficiency and should not be used during exercise except on specific advice from a physician. Tang Soo Do students can wear face masks before and after training if they so wish but masks should not be worn. whilst performing any form of TSD elements, including warm-ups/cool-downs.

Finally, as we emerge from lockdown, I want to take a moment to recognise the selfless work of the NHS and other key workers, who have done so much to keep us all safe.

The martial art of Tang Soo Do is relatively modern. However, its basis, the Korean art of Soo Bahk Do, dates back many centuries. 

Tang Soo Do is both a hard and soft style, deriving its hardness in part from Soo Bahk and its soft flowing movements from the northern Chinese system

Tang Soo Do Moo Duk Kwan (a brotherhood and school of stopping inner and outer conflict and developing virtue according to the way of the worthy hand) is not a sport. Though it is not essentially competitive, it has great combat applications. It is a classical martial art, and its purpose is to develop every aspect of the self, in order to create a mature personality who totally integrates his intellect, body, emotions, and spirit. This total integration helps to create a person who is free from inner conflict and who can deal with the outside world in a mature, intelligent, forthright, and virtuous manner.

Sunday 3.30pm-5pm

We’re making our gyms safe for you during Covid

We’ve missed you and we’re looking forward to welcoming you back, so we can continue to support your health and fitness journey.

• Bircotes Leisure Centre - Saturday 25th July
• Retford Leisure Centre - Saturday 25th July
• Worksop Leisure Centre - Saturday 25th July

We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to create a safe environment for you to visit and we’ve made some changes to how we do things. Everyone will have a part to play in keeping our gyms safe, and we’ll be asking you follow a few rules too.

What we are doing to keep you safe

Keeping you safe and healthy is our number one priority. That’s why we’re introducing new cleaning procedures and social distancing measures, which have been guided by the experts at UK Active, the UK government and Public Health England.

Cleanliness

Members will be expected to sanitise their hands at reception and additional hand sanitiser units have been positioned at key areas across the sites.

Cleaning and disinfecting

We’ll be sanitising gym equipment throughout the day and giving the entire site a deep clean every night. All staff have had cleaning training and they’ll be using enhanced cleaning processes including a detergent, followed by a disinfectant.

Social distancing

You’ll see new social distancing signs around the gym, including one-way systems where possible. We’re also limiting the number of members in each area, such as the gym floor, studios, swimming pool and changing rooms. And we’ve reduced the amount of equipment and lockers available.

Changes to classes

We’re running smaller classes to keep everyone safe and the classes will be shorter than usual (30–45 mins) to make sure we have enough time to clean the studios. We’re only running certain classes to ensure social distancing – be sure to check our updated timetable.

Limited services and facilities

Our relaxation areas and cafés will have a reduced service. Please see relevant site for specific details.

Protecting you and our teams

We’ve installed plastic shields at our reception desks and we’ll be providing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to our staff if necessary.

How you can keep yourself and others safe

To keep our gyms as safe and clean as possible, we need your help too. We ask that you follow a few simple rules when you visit our clubs.

Before coming to the gym

Booking a session. All members will be asked to pre-book a session before attending our facilities. This will be required for a gym session, classes or members swims.
Members will be giving an advanced booking privilege. Further details of the session available will be announced in due course.

Stay home if you’re unwell. Please don’t come to the gym if you feel sick or have COVID-19 symptoms.

Bring your own. Bring a full water bottle as the water fountains aren’t in use. If you’re doing yoga or Pilates, bring your own mat if you have one. Please don’t bring a sweat towel

Arrive ready to work out. Please come in your workout gear to avoiding using the changing rooms. We advise against wearing face masks as these can hinder your breathing while exercising, and gloves aren’t recommended as they can’t easily be cleaned – please use the hand sanitiser provided instead.

Travel light. We won’t have as many lockers available as usual, so please think about how much you’re bringing with you.

Pre-book your swim. In addition to booking exercise classes, you’ll also need to book your swimming session in advance if you’d like to use the pool. You can do this using the My Bookings app or online booking.

Bring your bank card. As we can’t accept cash if you want to buy anything.
 

If you’re not ready to come back just yet

Whenever you’re ready, we’ll be there to make your return as straightforward as possible. In the meantime, you have some options.

Freeze membership. Not ready to restart your membership? Not a problem. To freeze your membership, simply fill out this form. If you have any other questions about your membership, read our FAQs below.

Click here to continue to freeze your membership

Online workouts. Don’t forget you can still use our digital resources from home. And stay tuned for our new Your Space at Home platform coming soon!
 

We’ll keep you updated on any changes

We’re monitoring the situation closely and we hope to make the rest of our services and facilities available again soon, dependent on government guidelines. Thank you for your continued patience.

Also, we want to reassure you that we’re fully prepared in the event of a second wave. If there is a reported case of COVID-19 in your club, we’ll tell you straight away and close the club for a full clean of the entire building.

Whether you decide to come back to the gym, or prefer working out at home for now, we understand. If you have any questions at all, contact us.
 

Reopening FAQs 

We can’t wait to welcome you back. 

In the meantime, if you’d like to see what a typical club will look like when we reopen, check out the video above under the ‘Protecting you and our teams’ section. You’ll be able to see the social distancing measures and enhanced hygiene procedures we’ve put in place to keep you safe, along with new rules for visiting your local gym. 

We’ve answered your questions below, but if you have any further queries, please contact your gym when it’s open again. 

Please note that these FAQs are subject to change as we adapt to new government guidelines. Your safety is our number one priority.

• Testing and treatment for sexual infections and genital problems
• All forms of contraception including emergency contraception
• HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C screening and Hepatitis B vaccination
• Care and support for people living with HIV
• Advice, support, and information about all sexual health concerns
• Free condoms
• Referral for psychosexual counselling.

We’re confidential

Information you discuss with us is strictly confidential. Your records are kept in the Sexual Health Department and your information would not normally be shared with any other hospital department or your GP without your knowledge.

We will not give your test results to anyone else without your permission. On the rare occasion that we do need to give information to a third party, we will always aim to tell you. The only reason we would do this is if we felt you or someone else were at risk of serious harm.

How long will you be in the clinic?

When you drop into the walk in clinic it may already be full to capacity which unfortunately means we may not be able to see you that day. You will be offered an appointment to attend another day. Any urgent cases will be assessed daily through a nurse triage system.

We do not fit or remove implants or coils in walk in clinics

If you have come to a ‘walk-in’ session, they can be very busy and you may be here for up to 2-3 hours. If you have come for an appointment, we aim to see you within half an hour of your given time. Seeing the doctor/nurse, having tests taken, and getting your results and treatment can take up to one hour.

Nottinghamshire County Council’s Public Health have commissioned a new and exciting website ‘Health for Kids’ which will be managed by the Youth Service. The website is due to be launched in January 2019.

Health for Kids is a health promotion website offering information in a fun and interactive way for primary school children, parents/carers and teachers. The website will offer local news on upcoming events, campaigns, blogs, articles and useful information about services available to children within Nottinghamshire. The website aims to help promote the health and wellbeing of children aged 5-11 years. 

Moving forward, the Youth Service will also be managing the Health for Teens Website, which was launched back in January 2016. Health for Teens offers health and wellbeing advice and information to young people aged 11-19, promoting a healthy body and mind. The site provides local information on relevant services to signpost young people to within Nottinghamshire.

As a service we would like to inform you of how to contact us in regards to supporting the websites to ensure the information we include on the local pages is up to date and relevant for Nottinghamshire. For example, if you have an event you would like us to promote to children, young people, parents or carer, or if you have a campaign that is running locally we can publicise these on the Health for kids or Teens Website’s.

We would also like to request you to promote the relevant website to the appropriate age group through your service. We have a range of publicity material available electronically and a limited supply of hard copies.

To get in touch, request any material and add any information you feel is relevant and appropriate for the sites please email the content to; healthforkidsandteens@nottscc.gov.uk

For further information on the Health for Teens and Kids Websites, please contact; Jenny Quin-Smith from the Youth Service on; 01158041180; Jennifer.quin-smith@nottscc.gov.uk
