A campaign to find the one in 10 people in Wales at risk of developing diabetes or having a stroke is being launched.

About 11,000 people suffer a stroke in Wales each year, while an estimated 350,000 are unaware they risk developing Type 2 diabetes.

Free risk assessments will be on offer at 714 chemists during the two-week One in 10 campaign from 3 September.

Last year the pharmacy campaign focused solely on diabetes.
