The @UKHSA and @metoffice has issued a yellow weather warning for July, indicating a significant impact on vulnerable groups.
As we prepare for the weekend, we want to make sure each one of you is well-informed and ready to tackle the rising temperatures. While we’re all excited about the summer, it’s crucial to prioritize both yours and your family’s safety.
🔆 Whether you’re in the South West or any other region, here are some essential tips to beat the heat and stay cool:
1️) Stay Hydrated: Don’t forget to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your body hydrated. Hydration is key to combating the heat.
2️) Dress Smart: Opt for lightweight, loose-fitting clothing and breathable fabrics. Choose light colours that reflect sunlight and help you stay cooler.
3) Seek Shade: When outdoors, find shaded areas or create your own with umbrellas or canopies. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, especially during the hottest hours.
4) Protect Your Skin: Apply sunscreen with a high SPF, wear a hat, and don’t forget your stylish sunglasses. Shielding yourself from harmful UV rays is essential.
5️) Take Breaks: If you’re enjoying outdoor activities or even working outside, remember to take regular breaks in cooler spaces. Listen to your body and rest when needed.
6️) Check on Others: Keep an eye out for those who may be more vulnerable to heat, such as the elderly, young children, or individuals with health conditions. Help if needed.
7️) Stay Informed: Stay updated on weather reports and heat advisories in your area. Follow official guidelines and take necessary precautions.
🌡️ Stay cool, stay hydrated, and enjoy the sunshine responsibly! ☀️
