Pressure check for free
A PHARMACY in Sheffield is holding a week of free blood pressure checks as part of the Blood Pressure Association's Know Your Numbers campaign.
The Derbyshire Lane Pharmacy in Norton Lees is among thousands of organisations urging all adults to have their blood pressure levels checked.
More than 16 million people in the UK have high blood pressure, but a third are completely unaware because there are no obvious symptoms.
High blood pressure is the major cause of heart attacks, strokes and heart disease, but can be monitored and treated.
