How’s your health?

I know of three newsagents who have each had a heart attack in the last week.  While they are on the mend, it is a reminder of the need to take steps to reduce risk.

With the hours newsagents work and with many handcuffed to their businesses out of necessity, achieving a healthy lifestyle can be a challenge.  It is better that we act early, before warning signs (or worse) for the sake of our families, our friends and our businesses.

All of us in the channel should look at what we can do to improve our situation and that of colleagues.

    Can I recommend here that men have a PSA test. Saved my husband’s life, so I’m a bit keener than some GP’s are about the value of knowing what it is -simple blood test, find out your cholesterol at the same time.Knowledge is power.

    I also wonder how many newsagents have adequate personal and business insurances ?
    With it being a little tough at the moment I wonder how many have let slide or ignored this type (Trauma, life and Illness)of insurances ?
