At TPD Wealth, we believe that a healthy workforce is a happy and productive one. That’s why we’re thrilled to take part in the Healthy Heart initiative by Stockport Council, offering FREE Healthy Heart Checks to our employees. This initiative aligns perfectly with our ongoing commitment to employee wellbeing and ensures that our team has access to essential health screenings that could be lifesaving.
Why It Matters
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a major health concern in Stockport, ranking as the second leading cause of death and accounting for 25% of all deaths in 2022. Even more concerning, early heart disease deaths have reached a 14-year high. On a national scale, over 100,000 people are admitted to hospitals each year due to heart attacks. These statistics highlight the urgent need for preventative measures—like the Healthy Heart Check—to help detect potential health risks early and take proactive steps toward better heart health.
What’s Included in the Healthy Heart Check?
This quick and simple assessment can provide valuable insights into your cardiovascular health. The check includes:
- Blood pressure measurement – High blood pressure is often called the “silent killer” because it has no symptoms but increases the risk of heart disease and stroke.
- Waist circumference check – Excess weight around the abdomen is linked to a higher risk of heart disease.
- Personalised advice – Guidance on how to improve heart health.
Our Commitment to Your Health
At TPD, we know that a strong heart leads to a stronger team. By offering these free Healthy Heart Checks, we are taking a proactive approach to employee health and wellbeing. Early detection and lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular issues, ensuring that you stay healthy, active, and able to enjoy both work and life to the fullest.
When employees feel supported in their health, they are more engaged, less stressed, and better equipped to perform at their best. Investing in preventative health measures not only benefits individuals but also strengthens our company culture, fostering a workplace where people thrive both personally and professionally.
We encourage every business around Stockport to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity.
A few minutes today could make a big difference to your future health.
