Please take extra care during this period:

✅ Check on older friends, relatives and neighbours – especially those living alone
✅ Never leave children or pets in parked cars

Remember to stay cool by:

☀️ Avoiding direct sun between 11am and 3pm
👕 Wearing light, loose-fitting clothing, a hat and sunglasses
🧴 Using SPF 30+ sunscreen (SPF 50 for children) and reapply regularly
💧 Drinking plenty of water and avoid alcohol
🏃 Avoiding strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day

Even in hot weather, open water can be dangerous. Make sure to:

🌊 Choose lifeguarded areas where possible
🚫 Never swim after drinking alcohol
🌡️ Enter cold water slowly and stay within your depth
👥 Swim with others whenever possible

Know the signs of heat-related illness:
