Around 1 in 4 adults in the UK have high blood pressure, but most do not know it. Because it rarely has symptoms, it is known as the "silent killer". Left unchecked, it can lead to a heart attack or a stroke.A quick, free, and simple check only takes a few minutes and could save your life.

Community pharmacies are offering free NHS blood pressure checks to people aged 40 and over, often with no appointment necessary. Your results will be sent through to us at Avonside.

This free check involves spending around 10-15 minutes in the pharmacy consultation room with the pharmacist or trained member of staff. Following this, you may be invited to take home a blood pressure monitor that measures your blood pressure as you go about your daily life.

Summer months are always a bit more of a challenge whilst staff try and take annual leave with their family but we've made it through the other side.

Glad to see less patients missing appointments in August but we would much rather this be 0!
