CLITHEROE Health Centre will run a series of screenings for people who think they are suffering from diabetes.
In support of Diabetes UK's national awareness campaign, the Railway View Road centre will be open throughout next week for people to drop in and be checked by a doctor.
Sessions will be held from 10am-4pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. There is no need to see a GP first, but people must be registered at the practice.
Symptoms of diabetes include increased thirst, passing water frequently especially during the night, extreme tiredness, weight loss and blurred vision.
Groups most at risk are the over 40s, those with a history of diabetes in their family, people who are overweight or are Afro-Caribbean or Asian and pregnant women.
Anyone who is suffering from any of the symptoms or falls into an at risk category is urged to take advantage of the sessions.
