This service is a free NHS consultation from your Pharmacist, who will check your blood pressure and advise you on healthy lifestyle changes. They will also check your pulse. If your Pharmacist finds that your blood pressure is raised, they will offer a more detailed blood pressure assessment.

If your blood pressure is extremely high, your Pharmacist will advise you to see your GP.
