Do you live, work, study or run a business in the South Hams? If so, we want to hear from you.
The Government has asked us to explore a new way of working across local councils—and now it’s your turn to help shape what happens next. What’s important to you? What would you like to see change? Your views will help us build a stronger, more efficient local government that works for everyone.
Head to our website to find out more about what’s being proposed, answers to frequently asked questions and the consultation.
Visit our website to learn more and have your say.
We’ll also be out and about across the South Hams soon—meeting with communities and answering your questions face-to-face. Watch this space for dates and locations!

Your health and wellbeing is important to us. Are you making use of the NHS App to access healthcare services?
Record numbers of patients in Devon are now accessing the app. In January, the number of repeat prescriptions ordered through it went above 100,000 for the first time, with May achieving a record 107,200 orders.
The NHS App hosts a range of features that enable you to access key services from the comfort of you home.
You can:
- Order repeat prescriptions from a nominated pharmacy.
- Book and manage appointments.
- View your GP health record to see information like your allergies and medicines (if your GP has given you access to your detailed medical record, you can also see information like test results)
- Book and manage COVID-19 vaccinations.
- Register organ donation decisions.
- Choose how the NHS uses your data.
Each prescription ordered electronically saves GP practices three minutes and a patient 18 minutes, making it more convenient for people and freeing up frontline staff to do other important duties.
