February is National Heart Month ❤️
Led by the British Heart Foundation, National Heart Month raises awareness of cardiovascular disease, which affects more than 7 million people across the UK. The focus is on prevention, early action and supporting long-term heart health.
Love your heart and learn more about keeping it healthy. Small, everyday steps can make a real difference, including:
• Maintaining a balanced, lower-salt diet
• Staying active
• Managing blood pressure and cholesterol
• Stopping smoking
• Knowing the symptoms of a heart attack
At Dickson Chemist, our team can support you with:
• Blood pressure checks
• Advice on cholesterol-lowering support
• Smoking cessation services
• Guidance on lifestyle changes to support heart health
If you are eligible, regular NHS health checks are also an important way to spot potential issues early.
Pop into your local pharmacy and speak to a member of our team, to learn how we can help support your heart health this February and beyond.
