NHS Lung Health Check Volunteers needed

The NHS Lung Health Checks are for people who live in Hull aged from 55 to less than 75, who smoke or used to smoke and have a Hull GP.  Run by specially-trained nurses, a lung health check can reassure you that your lungs are healthy or help find problems early – often before you notice anything is wrong.  If lung cancer, or another problem with your breathing or lungs, is found early, treatment could be simpler and more successful.

The mobile unit which delivers the Lung Health Checks is going to be moving to North Hull in February 2022 and the organisers are looking for volunteers to help promote this to the local residents.  The volunteers will be inside North Point shopping centre and be handing out leaflets and freebies to members of the public.

If you are interested in helping, the dates they are looking for people are;

• Thursday 3^rd February – Saturday 5^th February – morning (09:30-12:30) or afternoon (12:30-3.30)
• Thursday 9^th February – Saturday 11^th February – morning (09:30-12:30) or afternoon (12:30-3.30)
