People with mental health problems in Brent face one of the greatest health inequality gaps in the country. Annual health checks with GPs are available but some people do not avail of this service or they are not aware of it. The Annual Health check is an important opportunity for the individual to chat with their GP about their physical health, their medication, and at the same time have tests for blood sugar, blood pressure, weight etc. Some Brent Thrive members have produced a short promotional video to encourage people to contact their GP for a check up.
