Staff at the Townsend House Medical Centre in Seaton have been busy raising money for a worthy cause.

A coffee morning resulted in a total of £210 being collected for Macmillan Cancer Support, thanks to the generosity of patients.

On a less happy note, the surgery has said farewell to Dr Katie Seaver, who left the practice on Thursday in order to spend more time with her young family.

Dr Jon Dove will be taking over her list and patients will be transferred to him unless they have a different preference.
