Similar health events in the region organised by Irwin Mitchell have proved very successful and allowed people to access advice on health-related matters.
People attending the latest event in Wolverhampton will have access to a range of health checks delivered by health care professionals, including a free eye test, CPR training and blood pressure checks.
Information on general heart health and advice on a range of health-related issues will also be available.

Expert Opinion
This is the first time we have joined forces with such a large organisation such as the Fire Service and we are delighted to be working with them in delivering this service to the community in Wolverhampton.
“The Health Awareness Day will offer those attending the opportunity to receive free health checks and advice. We hope that the local community will come to the fire station and take advantage of the free care and advice on offer.
“It can sometimes be difficult to come to terms with health problems and approach medical professionals for advice on general health and lifestyle. However, this informal event will provide people with the opportunity to come along and learn more about different conditions and other related issues.” Satinder Bains - Partner
WCDR Warren Davies commented “Wolverhampton Fire Station and West Midlands Fire Service are delighted to work with Irwin Mitchell and provide free Health Awareness days for our community. This shows our commitment to our Health and Well-being agenda and that of the Wolverhampton City strategy in providing this worthwhile event. We would recommend people, take up on this offer, as it is free and will have experts in their field giving advice, in an informal relaxed atmosphere.”
