The Algete City Council has organized the Health Week, an event taking place from April 6 to 12, offering residents various activities and services to promote physical and mental well-being.

Under the slogan «Together for a healthier life», this initiative aims to motivate the population of Algete to adopt routines that improve their long-term quality of life. The program includes outdoor activities, open days at sports centers, and a network of promotions in local businesses specializing in personal care.
Among the highlighted activities is the Intergenerational Walk, scheduled for Tuesday, April 7. The departure will be at 9:30 AM from the Municipal Sports Center and will cover the area of Las Huelgas, inviting residents of all ages to participate. Another option for moderate exercise is «Walk for your health», which will take place on Thursday, April 9, meeting at the Municipal Senior Citizens' Center at 9:30 AM.
Those interested in trying new sports disciplines or getting to know local facilities can take advantage of the open days. Centers such as Gimnasio Toal Gym (C/ Paloma, 17), Crossfit Unbroken Norte (C/ Río Guadiana, 12), Fitness Algete (C/ Villa Esther, 14), and Gorjon Team (C/ Ronda de la Constitución, 134) will offer access without obligation, requiring prior appointment in all cases.
Prevention is a fundamental pillar of the Health Week. Various local establishments have joined the initiative with free services and significant discounts. Pharmacies Limón Verde, Montealbillo, Magnolias, San Roque, Santo Domingo, Cigarral, and Valdeamor will offer free blood pressure checks. Opticians such as Opticalia, Fersan, and Tu Visión will perform basic visual examinations and eye pressure tests, while the Centro Integral de la Audición will provide free hearing studies by appointment.
