Looking after your health is a strength, not a weakness.

World Stroke Day.

Would you know how to recognise the signs of a stroke?

Remember FAST:

F – Face: Has their face fallen on one side?
A – Arms: Can they raise both arms?
S – Sp*ech: Is their sp*ech slurred or confused?
T – Time: Call 999 immediately.

A stroke is a medical emergency. Acting quickly can make a difference, so don't wait to see if the symptoms improve.

Think FAST. Act FAST.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) can cause discomfort, pain, and irritation but help is closer than you think!

Under the Pharmacy First scheme, your local pharmacist can offer expert advice, assess your symptoms, and provide treatment without needing a GP appointment.

Common UTI symptoms:
✔️ A burning sensation when urinating
✔️ Needing to p*e more often and urgently
✔️ Cloudy, strong-smelling, or dark urine
✔️ Pain in your lower tummy or back

What to do if you think you have a UTI?

- Visit your nearest pharmacy—no need for a GP appointment!
- Drink plenty of water to help flush out bacteria.
- Avoid caffeine and alcohol, which can irritate the bladder.
- Seek medical help if symptoms persist or worsen.

World Osteoporosis Day - 20th October 2026

This is your moment to take action for stronger, healthier bones! This silent disease often shows no symptoms until we suffer a fracture. But with awareness, prevention, and early diagnosis, we can change that.

What is osteoporosis? It’s a bone condition where bone density drops and microarchitecture weakens - making bones fragile and more prone to breaks, especially in the hip, wrist, and spine.

Risk factors include aging, menopause (due to dropping estrogen), smoking, alcohol, poor nutrition, certain medications, and underlying health conditions.

Preventive steps:
• Eat a bone‑friendly diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, protein
• Do weight‑bearing and resistance exercises
• Avoid smoking and excess alcohol
• Get your bone density checked if you're at risk
