Council Chairman, Councillor William Walker speaking about the Health Fairs said: “While at the outset these Fairs had been scheduled for Council Staff and their families, the Health and Wellbeing Group felt that the events should be made available to the general public due to the wealth of information and advice available.
“I would encourage every resident to attend their nearest Health Fair to make 2015 the year they took positive steps to living a healthier lifestyle.”
