Citizens had the opportunity to perform free health checks, including blood pressure measurement, blood sugar level check, BMI index calculation, and advice on proper nutrition and healthy lifestyle habits.
Special attention was attracted by Red Cross volunteers who distributed apples with motivational messages about health, while visitors could leave their messages on the symbolic “Wall of Health” and take photos with the slogan “I choose health!”. The program is additionally enriched with a fitness performance, which highlights the importance of regular physical activity.
At the end, the organizers thanked all the participants, partners, health workers and volunteers, as well as the citizens who supported this event, with the message that health is not a coincidence, but a choice we make every day.
