Know Your Numbers Week is a campaign run by Blood Pressure UK each year to raise awareness about high blood pressure – the silent killer that is the third biggest risk factor for all disease in the UK.

Not only that, but, using our medically validated Health Check Point equipment, we also help staff look at other risk factors, such as:
Plus a lot more health stats and lifestyle factors.
