HEALTH checks are being offered for free at a Huddersfield school.

The NHS appointments are aimed at people aged between 40 and 74.

During the 30-minute appointment the person’s blood pressure, cholesterol level and, where necessary, blood sugar level will be checked.

The tests give instant results.

The appointments will be available at Birkby Junior School tomorrow.

Other dates and venues are available.

They are part of an ongoing programme of health checks across Kirklees.

Booking is essential.
