You can get a FREE ‘health MOT’ and lots of wellbeing advice at Robin Park Leisure Centre on Friday 15 May (10am-3pm).

There’ll be NHS mini health checks without appointment 🩺 plus body composition scans from the Be Well Wigan team who’ll also be giving away free 14-day passes for local leisure centres.

As usual, there’ll also be tons of stalls offering information and guidance on a whole range of topics – from breast, bowel and prostate cancer screening, to mental wellbeing, getting online, healthy employment and income maximisation. 🫶

And for men aged 64 or over, the Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Screening Service will be on hand with free, potentially life-saving ultrasound scans (by appointment only).

You can find more information, including a full list of stallholders, on the Be Well website. Link in the comments.

“Everyone you meet always asks if you have a career, are married or own a house as if life was some kind of grocery list. But no one ever asks you if you are happy” - Heath Ledger

Remembering Heath Ledger on what would have been his 47th birthday.

There is no rulebook for when your life is supposed to make sense.

Things fall apart, restart, and come together in ways you can’t predict.

Some people bloom early, others take time to build something real.

Neither is wrong.

The pressure to keep up is what makes you feel behind.

But your path isn’t meant to look like theirs.

Stay focused on your own progression, even when it feels slow.

Because everything you’re going through is shaping who you’re becoming.❤️
