With over 625,000 people thought to be affected by high BP in C&M and almost half this number thought to be unaware that they have the condition, it is critical urgent action is taken to prevent, identify and manage those at risk.

In May 2016 the C&M five year cross sector strategy to tackle high BP "Saving lives: Reducing the pressure" was launched. The nationally and internationally recognised strategy sets out the vision, aims, objectives and high level action plan for prevention, detection and management of high BP. It aims to relieve the pressure on health and social care services by empowering healthier lifestyles and self-care.
