NHS Health Check

Are you aged 40-74 years?

Then you could be due your FREE NHS Health Check which aims to prevent and detect cardiovascular diseases, like high blood pressure and diabetes; and help you to lower your risk. Ask your GP for more information.

Find out more about NHS Health Checks, who's eligible, what the check looks for, what happens when you visit your GP practice and what to expect after your health check via NHS Choices.

 We want people to know that diseases such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and diabetes can often be prevented, even if there is a family history of them. It's never too late to make a difference to your health.

Want to make a change to your lifestyle (e.g. stop smoking, lose weight, be more active, drink less or eat well) find out more about what you can do and local support available on Living a healthy lifestyle.
