Advice below for keeping cool and safe during the hot weather ☀️

It’s hot and getting hotter. Today remains an amber heat health alert. Tomorrow, Wednesday 24 June and Thursday 25 June are predicted to be declared a red heat health alert.

A cool living space is especially important for infants, older people or those with long-term health conditions.

Simple measures can help to keep you cooler at home:

👉Close blinds and curtains on windows that are exposed to direct sunlight
move to the coolest part of your home

👉Open windows (if it is safe to) when the air feels cooler outside than inside

👉 Use electric fans if the temperature is below 35°C, but do not aim the fan directly at the body

👉 Go outside if it is cooler in the shade
