Two sets of keys were posted through our door on Sunday, but they’re not anything to do with us! They look like they might belong to an Airbnb host, or similar.

I just joined when I moved to Dulwich 3 years ago. I have never seen a GP and I wouldn't even know their names. It is a shame.

About 25 years ago if you felt poorly you just went and you'd be seen. You might have to wait but no appointment needed, you'd be seen while you were there. As they say, different times,
