Thanks to your generosity we collected more than 100 kg of groceries for North Norfolk Foodbank, bringing vital support. Every tin, packet and box was a reminder of the strength of our community when we pull together.

The Impact

• Immediate relief: Supplies for households in need
• Community spirit: neighbours helping neighbours

A huge thank-you to everyone who donated. Your kindness makes a real difference here in North Walsham.

Last year North Walsham Phoenix Group partnered with Reed Wellbeing and the NHS to bring free health checks straight to the heart of our community. Held right on the High Street, these pop-up clinics removed the usual barriers—no lengthy forms, no long journeys—just simple, face-to-face support where people live and work.

What is an NHS Health Check?

An NHS Health Check is a free appointment for adults aged 40–74 to assess risk factors for:

• Heart disease
• Type 2 diabetes
• Kidney disease
• Stroke
• Dementia

Each 20-minute check includes measurements of blood pressure, cholesterol, body mass index and personalised lifestyle advice.

Why on the High Street?

• Accessibility: Easy to drop in on your way to work or the shops
• Early intervention: Spot risk factors before they become more serious
• Local support: Friendly staff from Reed Wellbeing and the NHS on-hand to answer questions

How to Book

Appointments remain free and straightforward:

1. Call Reed Wellbeing on 01263 000000
2. Book via the NHS website (search “NHS Health Check North Walsham”)
