Occasionally the practice needs to close. Aside from bank holidays there are a number of reasons that the practice closes.

Once a month on a Thursday from 12:00 the practice closes for what are called “Target” sessions.

TARGET stands for Time for Audit, Research, Governance, Education and Training, and offers a vital chance for us to improve the service for our patients.

Below is a list of the latest closures we are currently aware of:

• Thursday 29^th January 2026
• Thursday 26^th February 2026
• Thursday 26^th March 2026

To access a GP when the practice is closed, you will continue to telephone the NHS 111 service and they will either signpost you to the most appropriate service or arrange for you to access a GP.

Additional access will still be provided at the local HUB site at Windsor House Surgery.

Morley PCN extended access service offers out of hours GP appointments.

Both face-to-face and telephone appointments are offered (these run from Windsor House Surgery, Morley).
