The main surgery is in Whalley, with its long established village community and the surrounding farming area of the Ribble Valley, as well as the more recent development of managerial and executive commuters employed in the neighbouring towns. The area benefits from low unemployment rates. A branch surgery is sited three miles away in Sabden and serves the village and surrounding immediate neighbouring farms on Pendle Hill.
