New chapter for Downing Street Group Practice

Downing Street Practice, in partnership with Waverley Borough Council, has announced that it will be moving premises to Wey Court East in Farnham town centre.

The GP practice, with more than 13,600 patients, will be relocating to the larger premises at Wey Court East by Summer 2024.

Dr Edward Wernick, GP Partner at Downing Street Group Practice, said: “While we will be sorry to leave our current building which has housed the practice for over 200 years, the move is an exciting new chapter for us.

“The new premises at Wey Court East will enable us to continue to provide first-class care for our patients in a state-of-the-art facility with additional clinical rooms, improved technology and larger facilities for staff and patients in a spacious, modern setting.”

The new premises will have access to nearby town centre parking and offers disabled access to the first floor via a lift.

Waverley Borough Council Portfolio Holder for Finance, Assets and Property, Councillor Mark Merryweather, said: “This is a fantastic result for everyone concerned. We’ve been able to help ensure that the practice can stay in the heart of Farnham town centre and allow them to grow and meet the needs of our local community. 

“For the council, we’ve been able to secure an outstanding tenant for a building that has been vacant for a very long time and the long-term lease has also given us the certainty to be able to fund significant re-modelling works required to make the building fit for the future.”

The number to call the practice (01252 716226) will remain the same. The practice will look to change its name as it relocates.
