GPS HEALTHCARE hosted a Men’s Health Event at Knowle Surgery as part of Men’s Health Awareness Week.
The event was designed to encourage men to take a more proactive approach to their health and wellbeing, to seek support earlier, and to raise awareness of the range of services available to them within primary care and the wider community.
Throughout the morning, patients were able to access a range of dedicated services, including pre-booked appointments with male clinicians for men’s health concerns, as well as NHS Health Checks for eligible patients.
Alongside this, there were also drop-in information stalls providing advice, guidance, and support.
A spokesperson for the event said: “We created a welcoming and supportive environment, with an all-male clinical and reception team in place on the day to help encourage open conversations around men’s health.”
A number of external organisations also attended the event to provide additional support and information, including Birmingham Mind, Alcohol Change UK, Aquarius, and SIAS.
