Successful Community Event at St John’s Church In Buxton

St John’s Church in Buxton hosted a special community event yesterday for residents registered with local GP practices, aimed at promoting and training people on how to use the NHS App.

The session gave attendees the chance to receive hands-on support with installing and navigating the app, helping more people access healthcare services digitally.

Alongside the NHS representatives, the Safer Neighbourhood Team and Fire Safety officers were also on hand to provide home safety and security advice.

Organisers said the event was an important opportunity to engage directly with some of Buxton’s harder-to-reach communities, offering in-person support and answering questions on health and safety.

The day was described as a success, with residents leaving better informed and more confident in both using digital health tools and taking practical steps to keep themselves and their homes safe.
