Health event in Pinchbeck

Residents in Pinchbeck are being encouraged to love their heart as part of a new event.

Love Your Heart will take place at the village’s Community Hub on Knight Street on Thursday, November 19.
A host of services will be available for residents to talk about their physical health as well as social and mental wellbeing.
There will also be free taster sessions and health checks including blood pressure, pulse, weight and oxygen levels.
The event is a collaboration of the Patient Participation Group, Spalding Primary Care Network (PCN), the South Lincs Rural PCN, Pinchbeck Hub and Neighbourhood Working South Lincolnshire.
An NHS spokesman said: “The event will highlight the various health and care services available to the public in the Pinchbeck area.
“Collectively, they will come together to show how they can support residents and their heart health.”
Dr Khan, clinical director for Spalding PCN and GP at Beechfield Medical Centre, said: “Everyone attending aspires to deliver an exemplary standard of care to our residents, clients and patients.”
Clive Green, Chair of the Patient Participation Group (PPG) for Beechfield Medical Centre, added: “The event will highlight the services available and uncover opportunities that enable Integrated Neighbourhood Working and allow this to become the common practice for how we can support the people living in the Spalding area.”
James Avery, Pinchbeck Parish Council Chair, said: “We are delighted to be working with the NHS, South Holland District Council, Lincolnshire County Council and voluntary organisations to host this event and to help raise awareness of local services and activities to help people, who live in and around Pinchbeck, to stay healthy.”
