Luckily, once identified, it is often easily treated. Here at One You Lincolnshire, we are able to support you to make lifestyle changes and maintain a healthy blood pressure (Find our more at www.oneyoulincolnshire.org.uk)👈

‘Know Your Numbers’ this September!

We're supporting Know Your Numbers! Week 2025 (8–14 September) – the UK’s biggest blood pressure awareness campaign – by encouraging everyone across the county to check their blood pressure.

“Knowing your blood pressure could save your life. A quick, simple check is all it takes – and it can help you make small changes to protect your heart and health for years to come. We’re urging everyone in Lincolnshire to take a moment during Know Your Numbers! Week to find out their numbers and encourage friends and family to do the same.” Find out more at: https://lincolnshire.icb.nhs.uk/nhs-lincolnshire-icb-encourages-residents-to-know-your-numbers-this-september/

Emergency Alerts test 🚨
The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm.
Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate. You will not need to take any action.
The Emergency Alerts system is used to warn if there’s a danger to life nearby, including extreme weather. Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency. Find out more at gov.uk/alerts.
