February is Heart Health Month ❤️
An NHS Health Check is a free check-up for people aged 40–74 that looks at the health of your heart and blood vessels. It helps spot early signs of conditions like heart disease, stroke, diabetes and kidney disease — often before symptoms appear.
Your check includes important tests such as cholesterol and blood pressure, alongside simple questions about lifestyle, to give you a clearer picture of your heart health and future risk.
You’ll usually be invited every 5 years by text or email, so keep an eye out — or contact your GP or local council if you think you’re eligible.
Looking after your heart can start with small changes:
❤️ Move more
❤️ Eat well
❤️ Cut down on smoking and alcohol
❤️ Manage stress
❤️ Attend your NHS Health Check when invited
Your heart health matters — this February and beyond.
