Everybody Health and Leisure Health Referral Lead, Gavin McKeith, told Nub News: "High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a very common condition, with one in three UK people having this.

"Blood pressure is the amount of blood your heart pumps around your body and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries.

"One of the issues related to high blood pressure is it can often not present any symptoms.

"However, having high blood pressure can often lead to other health issues if not treated, including Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, strokes amongst many others.

"Nevertheless, lifestyle changes can be implemented to help prevent and lower your blood pressure, including increased exercise and physical activity levels, reduction in weight and salt intake and a healthy balanced diet."

As well as having free self-testing blood pressure machines available, Everybody will be providing information on why blood pressure is important to check.

Everybody Health & Leisure will also be providing information on why blood pressure is important to check at Crewe Lifestyle Centre (Ryan Parker).

It will also educate what the numbers mean and how exercise can help reduce and maintain blood pressure.

Everybody Health & Leisure is now a proud sponsor of Crewe Nub News.
