“With 22 health check appointments available at each visit, this means more than 350 people can benefit from this service visiting our stores. We’re delighted to bring this service to our stores.

“The health checks available onboard include blood pressure, pulse, blood sugar, carbon monoxide monitoring for smokers and body composition analysis. The sessions are delivered on a one-to-one basis and offer advice on healthier lifestyle choices and information on the early signs and symptoms of various cancers.

Appointments will take approximately 30 minutes and will operate on a first come, first served basis. Please note that appointments cannot be booked in advance.
