The next King's Health Partners' Primary Care Webinar is titled 'Supporting blood pressure testing in our communities – the launch of an innovative tool developed in SEL for community and clinical collaborations'.

‍

This webinar will launch the a new co-produced tool to support community organisations in south east London with blood pressure testing in non-clinical community settings.
