Contacting Foundry

It’s no secret that our surgery has been busier than ever. We’d like to remind you about the three ways you can get in touch with us if you need help – whether that’s for you or for someone you care for.

Pick the option that suits you best.

However you choose to get in touch, you will be asked what you need help with. The information you give will be passed to our Foundry Care Team.

- By Text / Email
