Did you know that high blood pressure often has no symptoms but can lead to serious health issues like heart disease or stroke?

That's why it's important to check your blood pressure regularly and .

Why it’s important:
🩸High blood pressure can damage your heart, kidneys and other organs.
🏥Early detection can help you manage and prevent more severe conditions.
⏲️It’s quick and simple to check.

You can check your blood pressure at your local community pharmacy. Many pharmacies in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin offer free, quick blood pressure checks with no appointment needed.

There’s also an online NHS tool you can use to help you understand your readings ➡️ https://www.nhs.uk/health-assessment-tools/check-your-blood-pressure-reading
