Helping you stay healthy for longer
An NHS Health Check is a free assessment designed to identify your risk of developing serious health conditions before symptoms appear.
The check can help detect early signs of:
-
High blood pressure
-
Heart disease
-
Stroke
-
Type 2 diabetes

Kidney disease
Many of these conditions can develop silently over a number of years. An NHS Health Check can help you understand your risk and take action to improve your long-term health.
