🌡️ Heat can be dangerous, but a few simple steps can protect you and your loved ones.
🥵 When temperatures rise, your body has to work harder to stay cool. Too much heat can lead to heat exhaustion or even life-threatening heatstroke, especially for older adults, young children, pregnant women and people with heart, lung or kidney conditions.
*Beat the heat with these simple tips:*
✅ Drink water regularly (don’t wait until you’re thirsty!)
🧢 Wear light, loose-fitting clothes and a hat.
🌳 Stay in the shade or indoors during the hottest hours of the day.
🚿 Cool down with a cool shower or a damp towel.
🏠 Keep your home cool by closing curtains during the day and opening windows at night.
👶 Never leave children or pets in parked cars – not even for a minute!
❤️ Check on older relatives, neighbours and anyone living alone.
⚠️ Feeling dizzy, confused, nauseous or extremely hot? These could be signs of heat illness. Move to a cool place, drink water and seek medical help if symptoms are severe.
💙 Stay cool, stay hydrated and look out for one another!
