Last week our team attended a brilliant community event in Boggart Hole Clough where city wide organisations came together to hold a fun day for all, there were activities for kids and a large variety of helpful informative stalls for everyone. We spoke to local residents about NHS screening services, the NHS app and our Nurse gave free blood pressure checks and advice.
