Seasonal health clinic for Travellers
The clinic, which will not open on Christmas Day or New Year’s Day, is staffed by a GP and a triage nurse and is open from 10am to 8pm.
It is estimated that the arrival of Travellers at this time of year pushes the population from around 1,800 to almost 4,000. Most of the visitors stay in their own caravans which they park mainly in the Roches Road area of the town.
