Your Numbers the Pressure off.
A blood pressure test checks if your blood pressure is healthy, or if it's high or low.
All adults over 40 years old are advised to have their blood pressure checked at least every 5 years.
Getting your blood pressure checked is easy, quick and could save your life.
You can get your blood pressure tested at a number of places, including:
• at some pharmacies
• as part of your NHS Health Check
• in some workplaces
• at your GP surgery
You can also check your blood pressure yourself with a home blood pressure monitor and these are available for free in libraries across Somerset. Find out more. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/blood-pressure-test/
Some smart watches/fitbits also measure Blood Pressure. Make sure you send in your blood pressure to us so we can add it to your record.

Find out why a blood pressure test is important, how it’s done and what your blood pressure reading might mean.
