Highlights from Love Your Lungs Week

Posted by: gaia - Posted on:

As part of Love Your Lungs Week (23rd–29th June), our Health Van, Vincent Van Cough, hit the road with stops in Mexborough and Clock Corner for two full days dedicated to raising awareness about lung health.

On Monday, 23rd June, we were at Mexborough High Street, followed by Clock Corner on Tuesday, 24th June. Delivered in partnership with Doncaster Council, the events created a fantastic opportunity for residents to check in on their lung health and access useful resources.

Throughout both days, visitors were able to:

  • Take a free Carbon Monoxide test
  • Speak with a local stop smoking advisor for support and advice to start their smoke-free journey
  • Learn more about Lung Cancer screenings and the importance of early detection
  • Discover simple steps to better care for their respiratory system, from managing existing conditions to adopting healthier habits

We loved seeing so many people stopping by to ask questions, take part in activities, and find inspiration to make positive changes. Events like these are a reminder of the power of community outreach in encouraging proactive health decisions.

Thanks to everyone who joined us! 💙
