    Report exposes Britain's unhealthiest high streets

    And the majority per head are all in England.. Astonishing burden on the NHS budget.

    Report exposes Britain's unhealthiest high streets | UK news | The Guardian

    Based on the number of such premises in the main shopping area, the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) has found that Preston has the highest concentration of outlets that can potentially damage health, closely followed by Middlesbrough and Coventry. Blackpool, where levels of health are among the lowest in England, and Northampton are fourth and fifth worst. Eastbourne, a popular retirement destination on the south coast, is a surprise inclusion. The RSPH rates it the 10th unhealthiest place in Britain.
    Think people in Preston should move to Greenock, there's even a Waitrose! by the by, WTF??

    The report appears to me indicates the towns in which punters have the opportunity to partake in an activity deemed "unhealthy" such as gambling, eating a take-away or taking out a loan. I'd be more concerned about those high streets with massive pollution levels

          Fake charity sends press release to further its cause.

            Oh, it's across the water in posh Helensburgh.

              Yes, like most of your posts, it was only wrong by the size of an estuary.

                Not an estuary, a spilt drink perhaps

                  Next time you're back in the UK, I'll sponsor you to swim from Greenock to Helensburgh for a charity of your choice. If the Clyde estuary is a 'spilt drink' it should only take a couple of minutes of your time.
