NHS Health Checks

Morelife offers FREE NHS Health Checks for people aged 40 to 75 who do not have any pre-existing conditions such as high cholesterol, diabetes and high blood pressure. 

Our friendly team will ask you some questions about your lifestyle and family history, measure your height and weight, take your blood pressure and do a blood test.

What is an NHS Health Check?

It’s a free check-up of your overall health and can help tell you if you’re at a higher risk of getting certain health problems such as: 

Heart Disease

Diabetes

Kidney Disease

Stroke

How do I get My Results?

You’ll be given your results during your appointment. 

Our friendly practitioners will provide you with a cardiovascular risk score, which is an estimate of how likely you are to get heart disease or have a stroke in the next 10 years. 

The higher the risk score, the more likely are to develop one of these illnesses, but do not worry – you will also be given supportive and effective lifestyle advice about how to: 

Improve your diet

Increase the amount of exercise you do

Lose weight

Stop smoking
