An award winning Ilford pharmacy is encouraging people to visit and get a free health MOT and quit smoking consultation today on No Smoking Day.
P&S Chemist, in Ilford Lane, is giving customers free blood pressure, blood sugar, heart risk and carbon monoxide tests as part of their Last Drag campaign.
Owner Shaheen Bhatia said: “We know giving up smoking is a real challenge, which is why we are here to help.
