~If you’ve felt a little run down recently and feel your body needs a good M.O.T then look no further than the annual Preston Health Mela.

Each and every year it has a general theme and encourages members of the public to get  fit and live a healthy lifestyle. There is also practical involvement too such as the exercise bike which provides drink the more you cycle and relaxation in the form of reiki and reflexology. You will also find expert doctors on hand who can share their knowledge and wealth of experience to the interested public in order to stay well and live longer.

This year’s Mela, in association with The National Forum for Health and Well being,  takes place on Saturday 14th April at UCLAN’S Foster Building between the hours of 11am -4pm. This year’s theme is alcohol abuse and related ill health.
