It can tell you whether you're at higher risk of getting certain health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease and stroke.

Get your blood pressure checked and questions about medications answered by a local pharmacist, plus plenty of valuable healthy living tips. 

Stop smoking support tailored to you

Our friendly Stop Smoking Service offers advice, support, and access to stop smoking medications. As part of the Swap to Stop Scheme we also offer free vape kits with supplies for up to 12 weeks.

Evidence shows that people are more likely to succeed with professional support - don’t go it alone! If you can't attend a bus, you can contact the Stop Smoking Service to discuss what support will work best for you.
