Half urged to see GP at heart check

WITH over 50 per cent alarmingly recommended to see a doctor, free heart health checks were on offer at Kelso Park last Saturday.

Alliance Real Estate (pictured) teamed up with Heartbeat of Football founder Andrew Paschalidis and the Panania Diggers Soccer Club to set up tents at which players, officials and spectators had free checks of blood pressure, glucose and cholesterol. Alliance Real Estate’s Jenny Fisher said: “It was brilliant initiative by a dedicated group, we were a proud sponsor and also got our own health checked!
“The following day we were proud to attend the Alliance Real Estate Bowls Tournament at Club Picnic Point.”
As a sponsor of both the Men’s and Women’s Bowls Clubs, an Alliance Real Estate Tournament is held annually.
“This year we were lucky enough to have Aaron Wilson and Ben Morthorpe participating in the day, with Ben’s side taking out the title,” Jenny added.
