This winter we're supporting World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (WAAW) which takes place 18th-24th Nov and European Antibiotic Awareness Day (EAAD) on 18th Nov. These are important campaigns to raise awareness among the public and healthcare professionals about the correct use of antibiotics.

We've pledged to be an Antibiotic Guardian organisation and to share information about the correct use of antibiotics with our patients and our employees.

The Keep Antibiotics Working campaign which is linked to WAAW and EAAD raises awareness of antibiotic resistance among the general public and encourages greater trust in doctors' advice when it comes to whether or not to take antibiotics.

Read the posters you'll see displayed here and in our GP practices.
