Blood Pressure Testing Week

West Ham United have teamed up with the Blood Pressure Association to promote the second BPA National Blood Pressure Testing week that commences on Monday, September 16 throughout the United Kingdom.

The BPA will be providing the opportunity for everyone to get their blood pressure checked at over 1,000 locations during the week, including health centres, supermarkets and pubs.

The aim is to raise awareness of high blood pressure, which affects more than one third of the adult population and can cause stroke and heart disease.
