The Rotary Club of Dagenham will be hosting a health awareness day and is encouraging residents to drop by for a health check.

During last year’s event, which was held at Kingsley Hall, Parsloes Avenue, more than twenty health practitioners gave free health care advice to members of the public.

The club is asking for health practitioners and advisors who would like to take part this year to contact them.

The event will be held on Saturday, May 19 between 10am and 4pm at the same location and all residents are invited.

The Rotary Club of Dagenham meets on Tuesday evenings at 6pm at Jazzie Steak House, Becontree Avenue, Dagenham.

Call 0208 590 4050 for information on how to get involved.
