​

Use this service to find a pharmacy that offers free blood pressure checks.

A pharmacist can check your blood pressure for free. You do not need to see a GP.

​

Who can get a free blood pressure check

You can get a free blood pressure check if you:

• Are aged 40 or over

• Live in England

​

You cannot get a free blood pressure check if:

• You already have high blood pressure

• A doctor, nurse or pharmacist has checked your blood pressure in the past 6 months

​

What happens when you get your blood pressure check

​

A pharmacist will wrap a blood pressure cuff around your upper arm to measure your blood pressure.

They will then share the result with you.

Depending on the result, they might:

• Give you healthy living advice

• Give you a blood pressure monitor to take home with you and return with later

• Advise you to see a GP

If you’re registered with a GP surgery, the pharmacist will share your results with them.
