ROSE Hill resident Richard Kiriisa was among the men on the estate who took advantage of a free health check-up.

The health bus was in The Oval on Thursday as part of an event to encourage men on the estate to take care of their health.

Oxford United staff also demonstrations of ‘footy fitness’ courses for men.

Mr Kiriisa, 36, said: “I just went to find out my physical status.

“It is a good idea to have the health bus because many people don’t go to get their health checked.”

Footy Fitness runs every Wednesday at the Kassam Stadium, from 6pm-8pm, with minibus transport provided. To find out more, visit oxfordunited-yc.co.uk/ footie-fitness or call 01865 337525.
