👨⚕️ Yesterday, Northampton Town FC Community Trust came to BCW Treatments Ltd in Wellingborough to carry out NHS health checks. It was fantastic to see so many staff members taking advantage of this service available for those aged 40-74. These health checks play a crucial role in identifying early signs of serious conditions such as stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes and dementia. Early detection can make a significant difference in health outcomes and we are proud to support our team in prioritising their wellbeing. #NHS FCMS (NW) Ltd will be visiting our Burnley site on Friday 25th October and Tuesday 29th October, to provide free health checks. We encourage everyone to take part and ensure their health is a top priority. Let’s continue to take proactive steps towards a healthier future.💙 #HealthChecks #CommunityWellness #BCWTreatments #NorthamptonTownFC #NHS #TeamBCW

SATURDAY IS COMMUNITY DAY! Saturday's game against Crawley Town is the club's annual Community Day, where we shine a light on some of the club's work in the local community. Each week, the Northampton Town Community Trust work with over a thousand people across Northamptonshire through 30 different projects that help improve health, build stronger, connected communities, and enhance life opportunities. On Saturday we celebrate and raise awareness of this work and offer supporters the chance to donate on the day to help continue to fund the life changing work the charity does. The game against Crawley Town this Saturday has been designated as this season’s Community Day for the Northampton Town Community Trust, the club’s official charitable arm, so the organisation is aiming to take the opportunity to highlight the extent of the huge amount of work that goes on in the community. On the day there will be a range of activities which cover the vast number of projects the Community Trust cover across their Education & Skills, Health & Wellbeing, Disability, Participation & Inclusion & Women & Girls departments.
