Do you have high blood pressure?

28 August 2024

An estimated six million people across the UK have high blood pressure, and don’t know it.

And every day in the UK, 350 people have a stroke or heart attack that could have been prevented.

These statistics sit behind the annual Know Your Numbers! Week, which runs from 2-8 September.

The campaign encourages people to check their blood pressure and seek help and support if their readings are high.

Find out more about Know Your Numbers! Week on the Blood Pressure UK website or read a factsheet produced by Police Mutual.
