Check & support your health
Barnet's Healthy Hearts project
Connect with like-minded people across Barnet and find the support and inspiration you need to make positive changes with the Healthy Hearts project.
Diabetes prevention
Know your risk of type 2 diabetes, and understand ways to prevent diabetes and enjoy a healthier life.
Cancer awareness, screening and prevention
Cancer prevention starts with awareness, and screening can save lives. Early diagnosis of cancer is strongly associated with more successful treatment.
Healthy Heart Peer Support
The Healthy Heart Peer Support is delivered by Inclusion Barnet in partnership with Barnet Public Health and the NHS.
NHS Health Checks
If you're aged between 40 and 74, have not had an NHS Health Check in the last 5 years, and you do not already have a diagnosed long-term health condition, you may be able to get a free NHS Health Check. You’ll be given advice to help you lower your risk of a stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, diabetes, and dementia, and improve your health.
Sexual health
Sexual health is an important part of our health and wellbeing. There are many services available in Barnet to support you with the right contraception for you and free testing or STI (sexually transmitted infections).
