Temporary Service Reduction

In order to protect patients,staff and members of the public during the current outbreak of Coronavirus,Spectrum Community Health is now running a reduced service at this clinic. These changes are in line with national guidance and are vital to ensure that vulnerable patients are protected from COVID-19.

Keeping in touch

We will be keeping in touch with patients via text message and you can follow our social media accounts online for the latest updates and information

Clinic Information

The following services are suspended with immediate effect:

  • All Walk-In Clinics, including Youth clinics
  • All monthly /bi-monthly clinics in Pontefract, Castleford , Normanton and South Kirkby
