KYN 2019
Know Your Numbers week takes place between 9 -15 September each year. The national campaign developed by Blood Pressure UK and adapted for local use by the Cheshire and Merseyside Health and Care Partnership, encourages adults across the UK to know their blood pressure numbers and take the necessary action to reach and maintain a healthy blood pressure by simple lifestyle changes.
There are over 8,000 people in Knowsley with undiagnosed high blood pressure, which increases the risk of stroke, heart attack or heart failure.
We are working in partnership with Volair to host a number of blood pressure testing stations at all 5 leisure centres during the week. Residents can also have their blood pressure checked at their local pharmacy or GP practice.
