A health service that featured on BBC One has moved into its own dedicated premises.
BloodWorks, an independent not-for-profit specialising in health screening, blood testing, and harm reduction, appeared on Stacey Dooley’s Clickbait Clinic earlier this year.
The service was filmed supporting people who self-prescribe hormone-related medications such as GLPs, peptides, and testosterone.
Joseph Kean, founder of BloodWorks, said: "Being involved in Clickbait Clinic gave us an opportunity to show something that’s often missing in the Health Optimisation movement – the need for people like Harvey to have detailed, evidence-based, and non-judgemental conversations about their health."
The episode also featured aspiring bodybuilder Harvey Boardman, who has since won his first amateur competition at PCA Coventry and gone on to compete in several more events.
Mr Kean said: "Harvey is a great example of why ongoing screening matters.
"When we first met him, he was aspiring to compete; since then he has won his first competition and continued competing, but importantly he has also come back to check what is happening with his health."
BloodWorks has now moved into its own dedicated premises in Baildon, marking a major step forward for the growing organisation.
Mr Kean said: "We started 15 months ago with the intention of delivering specialist clinics one morning a month, but the demand has grown and grown and the people of Bradford (and further afield) have supported us to get where we are today, with provision from South Wales to Otley (and plans to expand to both the North West, North East, and Midlands)."
BloodWorks offers comprehensive blood testing, health screening, body composition assessment, and specialist interpretation, focusing particularly on individuals who may not routinely access traditional healthcare services.
The new centre will also support the organisation’s training, research, and professional education programmes.
Mr Kean said: "BloodWorks has grown considerably, both in the number of people we're seeing and in the range of professionals and organisations interested in this this area of healthcare.
"At our first clinic in BloodWorks HQ we had attendees who travelled from Nottingham, Lancaster as well as locals demonstrating the potential reach and growing demand."
