Advice during the hot weather
As you may have seen, the temperatures are set to be high for the rest of the week and next week.
Public Health England and NHS issue advice in these circumstances, and this may be useful if you are concerned about the heat, or work with vulnerable residents. Key points include drinking plenty of water and protecting yourself from the sun during the hottest parts of the day.
Please take a look at the NHS’s advice on coping with the hot weather. In addition, there is an article from Public Health England with further details.
If you are concerned about a vulnerable or elderly resident, please check they are aware of NHS heat guidance, if you're still concerned please contact the appropriate council service
