Reminder of heat-health advice

Everyone can help to avoid heat-related illness by:

• staying hydrated with plenty of fluids
• finding a cool living or workspace
• avoiding strenuous or extreme activities

• wearing a sunhat and sunglasses, and applying plenty of sun-cream when outside.

If you or someone else feels unwell with a high temperature during hot weather, it may be heat exhaustion or heatstroke. Find out the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke and when to get help.
