This practice contributes to the Clinical Practice Research Datalink
Information in patient records is important for medical research to develop new treatments and test the safety of medicines. This practice supports medical research by sending some of the information from patient records to the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD).
CPRD is a Government organisation that provides anonymised patient data for research to improve patient and public health.
You cannot be identified from the information sent to CPRD.
If you do not want anonymised information from your patient record to be used in research you can opt out by speaking to your doctor.

Development and validation of a screening tool for social frailty in older people
We would like to invite you to take part in a research study.
If you are aged 60 and over, live at home, and are in contact with NHS or social care services, you would be eligible to take part in this study.
This study aims to evaluate a new screening tool designed to identify older people at risk of social frailty.
Social frailty refers to a situation where a person’s social resources and networks are reduced, increasing their risk of becoming isolated and needing care.
Participation in the study involves an interview with a researcher of about 20-30 minutes to test the questions. A £20 voucher will be provided to each participant.
