Free wellness event for Bolton residents – health checks and advice

The event on Saturday, August 10, organised by the University of Bolton, is in collaboration with NHS Bolton Foundation Trust.

Dr Harni Bharaj, deputy medical director and consultant physician at Bolton NHS Foundation Trust said: “We’re really looking forward to welcoming people to the University of Bolton and opening up the conversation about wellness.

“It’s so important that people feel empowered to take control of their health and confident enough to reach out for support if they’re struggling.

“We’ll have a wide-range of health professionals available to speak to on the day who are experts in their field, and can provide the information people need to make positive changes in their life.”

The Bolton Health Mela 2024 will be held at the University of Bolton social learning zone from 10am to 3pm.

Services include free health assessments, advice on healthy living and exercise, nutrition and dietary requirements, as well as exhibitors providing additional advice and information.

Free lunch will also be available along with free campus parking.

Attendees can book their free place on the University of Bolton’s website.
