Fund an increase in GP surgeries to ensure access

What the petition asks

I know this situation was difficult before Covid -19 and it has just got even worse.

There must be a better way forward as it is a countrywide problem.

Please, please help with creating larger fit for purpose premises to enable GP’s and growing communities cope.
Older people are not always able to use the internet and find trying to get through via telephone being kept hanging on for over as hour at times.

The NHS is brilliant but, only if you can access it, and the services it provides.

I sincerely hope that the Government will take action.
