Keeping yourself and others safe in a heatwave

It may seem appealing to be outside in the sunshine, but, with this week's record heatwave, it’s important to know how to cope with the stifling heat and understand the risk factors, so you are prepared for when it returns.

Stay cool, stay safe and stay in touch with those who are more vulnerable.
