NHS Health Checks, funded by Norfolk County Council Public Health, are considered as a midlife MOT and are an opportunity to put right emerging problems, but also provide personalised advice on keeping yourself healthy and active in the future.

They are available for 40 to 74 year olds who have not been diagnosed with heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease or a stroke and are accessible at most GP surgeries and at over 50 pharmacies across Norfolk. They take up to 30 minutes, you can have one once every five years and it is free of charge.

Contact your local surgery now for more information on how to book.
