What is a Primary Care Network?
Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS)
Primary Care Networks have been given funding to provide additional roles to create bespoke multi-disciplinary teams within their individual network.
PCN’s assess the needs of their local population and, working with local community services, make support available to people where it is most needed.

What’s the story with the bird?
OK, so the choice of our new logo for SPINE may seem a little odd but there is a reason behind it.
Barry picks up the story:
As a new arrival in Slough (since February 2025), the thing that has struck me about the place is that wherever you are in the town, you look up, or listen out, and you see and hear the Red Kites.
Whenever I’m at Kumar Medical Centre, or at the Wexham Court Parish Hall, the Avenue Medical Centre in Britwell, Farnham Road Surgery or at Weekes Drive Surgery in Cippenham, there is almost always at least one kite in view.
More often, I see up to a dozen kites soaring overhead and I’ve usually got one sitting in the tree outside my office at Farnham Road. Before I worked it out as bird calls, I got very distracted with their whistling and put it down to some locals calling to each other. I suppose I was correct, in a round about way.
They represent an example of regeneration and success. Since they were reintroduced in the 1990s, red kite numbers have been soaring. Seeing them thrive in Slough echoes what we want to do for our patients through SPINE PCN.
The colours in the logo mirror those used by Farnham Road and Kumar Medical Centre as a combined brand identity.
