aims and objectives of the Health Check
Aim One

Aim Two
To support individuals to effectively manage and reduce behavioural risks and associated conditions through information, behavioural and evidence based clinical interventions.
Aim Three
To help reduce inequalities in the distribution and burden of behavioural risks, related conditions and multiple morbidities.
Aim Four
To promote and support appropriate operational research and evaluation to optimise
programme delivery and impact, nationally and locally.

The Risk Factors
We know that your risk of developing heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease and dementia increases with age. There are also certain things that will put you at even greater risk.
These are:
• being overweight
• being physically inactive
• not eating healthily
• smoking
• drinking too much alcohol
• high blood pressure
• high cholesterol.
Both men and women can develop these conditions, and having one could increase your risk of developing another in the future.
