Heartline Magazine October - December 2007
Health Fair at Harrison College
Eat the correct foods and take plenty of
exercise - that was the message handed to the students of
Harrison College by staff of the Heart & Stroke Foundation of
Barbados at a Mini-Health Fair at the school on Thursday October
4, 2007. The fair was one of the activities planned by the
Foundation as part of Barbados Heart & Stroke Week in
recognition of World Heart Day, which fell on September 30,
2007.
The Foundation's personnel reported a keen interest among the
students, which was evidenced by a steady stream of boys and
girls visiting the display centre for the full duration of the
event, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Staff distributed leaflets to the
students showing the various programmes provided by the
Foundation, for their own use and for their families, and many
students took the opportunity to have their blood pressure
checked, also to be counselled by staff about the benefits of
healthy living and exercise. Several staff members of Harrison
College as well as parents also visited the fair and had blood
pressure checks.
