Community drop-in events

We are running, with Caafi Health, three community drop-in events in Bristol, Weston-super-Mare and Kingswood. These events are free and anyone can come along.  

Each event offers:

  • free basic health checks, including blood pressure, liver scan and advice
  • the opportunity to talk with researchers about health topics that matter to you most
  • feedback from the researchers about what they have learned from previous community events and how that will inform future health research.

Details:
