Stroke Prevention Day - check your blood pressure often

Today is Stroke Prevention Day, with professionals and campaigners focusing on high blood pressure. High blood pressure is the biggest risk factor for stroke, playing a part in about half of all strokes.
The message is to have your blood pressure checked regularly. And if you have high blood pressure you can try to drive it down by reducing your salt intake, exercising regularly, drinking less alcohol and smoking less.
John Shephard has had a number of strokes himself and campaigns to raise awareness of the risk factors.
