Hot weather advice for the next few days

 Over the next few days weather conditions will ease slightly but we will be subject to more heatwaves over the summer period, please be reminded of the few simple steps needed to keep you safe in the expected hot weather when outside.

Stay hydrated - Drink plenty of water and avoid caffeinated drinks. Make sure you have a bottle of water with you at all times.

Avoid the sunshine - try to find shade whenever possible.

Avoid getting sunburn - Use sunscreen and cover skin where you can.

Be alert to signs of heat-related illness i... Lethargy, headaches, feeling sick or generally unwell. Children and the elderly in particular are more at risk so keep a watchful eye on your loved ones.. I know this is like teaching your mother how to suck eggs for many but every year many people are admitted to hospital or worse despite the information being circulated. Enjoy the weather but stay safe.
