	answer text	<p>The Government continues to support delivery of the NHS Health Check, England’s flagship cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention programme. The aim of the programme is to prevent heart disease, stroke, diabetes, kidney disease, and some cases of dementia among adults aged 40 to 74 years who receive an invite for a check once every five years. The check assesses seven of the top risk factors for CVD and this includes a blood glucose test to assess for risk of diabetes. The result of the full check will then be used to support individuals to understand their results in relation to their risk of CVD and to provide them with personalised behaviour change advice on lowering their risk.</p>
