Workplace health and wellbeing services we offer

NHS Health Checks

Our team is specially trained to conduct NHS Health Checks, and we are pleased to extend this valuable service to adults aged 40 to 74 residing in Newcastle or registered with a Newcastle GP.   Best of all, these checks are provided to you at absolutely no cost!

The NHS Health Check is a vital preventive measure designed to identify early signs of conditions such as stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and dementia.

As we age, our susceptibility to these health challenges increases. That’s where an NHS Health Check becomes invaluable—it empowers people to take proactive steps in reducing risk.  Find out more about the comprehensive NHS Health Checks we offer by clicking here.

During the NHS Health Check our staff work individually with people and look a range of health lifestyle measures:

Each person who has a check receives personalised results

For those who do not meet the criteria for a free NHS Health Check, we are delighted to introduce our Workplace Health Checks.

These tailored assessments are available for a nominal fee and encompass the same checks  as the NHS Health Check and personalised advice to help people improve health and wellbeing and reduce the risk of developing many long term conditions .

Personalised stop smoking support

One to one support to quit smoking

Quitting smoking is undoubtedly one of the most significant steps you can take to boost your health. However, we understand that it can be a challenging journey.  For people who are ready to embark on the path to a smoke-free life, we’re here to lend a helping hand!

Research shows that two-thirds of smokers express a desire to quit, yet most attempt to do so without any assistance, which is often the least effective approach. By seeking the right support, smokers increase their chances of successfully quitting by threefold. This is why we proudly offer complimentary one-on-one support sessions, available to all adults residing, working, or studying in Newcastle.

Our personalised one-on-one support is tailored to the individuals unique needs and provides the latest information on the various treatment options.
