WORLD PRE-ECLAMPSIA DAY 2026 - 22ND MAY 2026

Pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy-related condition that causes high blood pressure. It can have serious complications but there are treatments that can help.

Symptoms of pre-eclampsia
Early signs of pre-eclampsia include high blood pressure (hypertension) and having protein in your urine.

It's unlikely that you'll notice these signs, so you'll be offered regular blood pressure and urine checks at your routine antenatal (pregnancy) appointments.

Other symptoms include:

* a severe headache that does not go away with simple painkillers
* vision problems, such as blurred vision or seeing flashing lights
* pain below the ribs
* sudden swelling of the face, hands or feet
* feeling very unwell
* heartburn that does not go away with heartburn medicines
being sick (vomiting)

Please see a link to the NHS website for further information:

🚶‍♀️ It’s National Walking Month! 🚶‍♂️

May is the perfect time to get moving and boost your health with something simple — walking.

Walking regularly can help:
💚 Improve heart health
🧠 Boost mood and reduce stress
⚖️ Support weight management
🦴 Strengthen muscles and joints

You don’t need to go far — even a 10-minute walk each day can make a real difference.

🌳 Why not:
• Walk to the shops instead of driving
• Take a stroll on your lunch break
• Enjoy a weekend walk with family or friends

Small steps really do lead to big changes.

If you have any health concerns or would like advice on getting started, our team is here to help.
