HFC Bank has embarked on a Health Awareness Campaign for the people of Tamale and its environs in a bid to help de-stress its customers and the entire larger community.
The two-day event which was under the theme ‘A Healthy Customer - The way we like it’, followed on the heels of a similar campaign rolled out for the people of Techiman and surrounding areas.
Isaac Okyere-Bimpeh, the Techiman Branch manager of HFC Bank, said the exercise was part of the Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility to promote self-worth and healthy living attitudes among its customers and the general public which ultimately translates into nation building.
About one thousand people turned up in the 2-day programme to screen for blood sugar level, blood pressure, body mass index, eye and dietary diseases, as well as have some free general health education.
Among the issues discussed were personal hygiene, hepatitis B, HIV/AIDS, and glaucoma.
Some of the participants donated blood for the Holy Family Hospital which worked in collaboration with HFC Bank in the Techiman health awareness campaign.
