Anne Stratton, Hounslow Borough Based Partnership Director and Chief Operating Officer, Hounslow and Richmond Community Healthcare Trust, said:
“Last year more than 2000 people attended Health in the Park, and we hope more will attend this year to enjoy a range of free health activities designed to help residents lead healthier lifestyles.
“A range of health professionals will also be available on the day to provide helpful advice and guidance on how we can all support long-term health. Plus, there will also be leads from support groups highlighting the easy ways to access their services in the borough.
