The purpose of ‘National know your number week’ is to raise awareness to prevent heart attacks and encouraging people to ensure they are checking and monitoring their blood pressure.

The week runs from 8th – 14th September. You are encouraged to check your own blood pressure or attend the GP/pharmacy frequently to get checked and make sure you always know your numbers to continue living a happy and healthy life.

The below information is taken from the Blood Pressure UK website:
Why it Matters:
High blood pressure, often called the "silent killer," can lead to serious health issues if left untreated, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney disease.

How to Get Involved:
You can get involved by getting your blood pressure checked, learning what your numbers mean, and taking steps to manage your blood pressure if needed.

This Year's Campaign:
The 2025 campaign, from September 8th to 14th, will emphasize the power individuals have to take control of their health by understanding their blood pressure.

World Alzheimer’s month takes place yearly in the month of September. It is an opportunity to raise awareness, reduce stigma and provide information for anyone affected by the disease.

What is the aim?
Alzheimer’s society states ‘’This is the UK’s forgotten crisis. Which is why this World Alzheimer’s Month, we’re taking stories from people affected by dementia, and bringing them out from behind closed doors. Making them public, making them loud, and creating an unignorable case for action’’.

What are the 10 early warning signs of Alzheimer's disease? (If you or someone you know experiences these symptoms, it's important to see a doctor, as some underlying conditions causing similar symptoms can be treated)

-Memory loss that disrupts daily life
-Difficulty with familiar tasks
-Problems with language
-Disorientation to time and place
-Poor Judgement
-Difficulty with abstract thinking
-Misplacing things in unusual places
-Changes in mood and behaviour
-Personality changes
-Loss of initiative or withdrawal from social activities.
