Farm families health checks programme

Where do I access the programme?

The Farm Families Health Checks Programme offers a means for farmers and their families to access health checks from a portable clinic and from local community settings. This innovative project consists of a mobile unit which will be available at local markets and community events across Northern Ireland.

What's included in the health check?

On-the-spot health checks consist of:

  • blood pressure monitoring, 
  • BMI check, 
  • cholesterol check and 
  • diabetic screening. 

In addition, individual lifestyle advice will be given on a range of health issues, and onward referral completed to local support services as required.
