The free afternoon at Codsall Community Hub saw interactive sessions, discussions, question-and-answer time with a doctor, and much more on the day of the event yesterday (Monday, June 9) afternoon.
Topics covered included quitting smoking and drinking, losing weight, help in supporting those suffering from long-term illnesses such as cancer and preventing or dealing with those of a chronic nature.
There were also interactive sessions on Alzheimers, diet, sleep, wellbeing and nutrition, yoga and physiotherapy.
Hundreds of people came through the doors, with staff and volunteers from Seisdon (PCN) on hand to answer questions or signpost members of the public to access help.
The network covers practices and medical organisations from Bilbrook, Codsall, Claverley, Wombourne, Perton and Featherstone.
The first such event took place last year at Trinity Methodist Church in Codsall and one of the organisers, Doctor Sarah Jadowski, said they hoped when the event started it would become an annual event.
She said: "It started with the intention of bringing together community and voluntary groups from the area as well as healthcare professionals under one roof and was so successful last year it was hoped it would become an annual event.
"This year at a different venue proved just as popular and I would like to thank all the healthcare professionals who attended, those who organised the event and of course all those from the community who hopefully went away with the information and help they were seeking or just learned a few new things."
