Heat – Yellow Health Alert

Posted on:

A yellow health alert has been issued in the UK due to the current heatwave.

While hot, sunny weather can always be enjoyable and fun, it is important to recognise both the dangers of hot weather, and how we can help ourselves and others stay safe. This is especially important for those whose health is likely to be negatively impacted by the heat, and those who live in homes most likely to overheat.
