Some great myth busting tips…

It was a hot, but great day!

34 degrees today. Officially the kind of heat that makes you want to lie very still in a darkened room.

But that didn’t stop the Community Partnership team from Warwickshire County Council, who spent the whole day with us completing their Emergency First Aid at Work training. Hot rooms, full concentration, and not a single complaint.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and got through the day. Skills like these matter, and they matter even more when you’re willing to learn them in conditions like today’s.

Stay hydrated out there, everyone. 💧

Hot Weather Wellness ☀️

When it’s hot, the small habits matter most. Five things worth getting right:

Drink before you’re thirsty. Thirst is a late signal. By the time you feel it, you’re already behind. Keep a bottle within reach and sip through the day, more if you’re out on the road or in the garden.

Hide from the midday sun. Between 11am and 3pm is the worst of it. Pull the curtains in any south-facing room, get a fan going, and run your wrists under the cold tap or press a damp flannel to the back of your neck. It works faster than you’d think.

Cool the bedroom down. Hot nights wreck sleep. Open the windows once the evening air drops, ditch the duvet for a single sheet, and skip the coffee and wine before bed. A few degrees cooler is the difference between tossing all night and actually resting.

Go easy on yourself. Heat frays the temper. If you’re snappy or wiped out or on edge, that’s the weather, not you. Naming it helps more than fighting it.

Knock on a door. Heat is hardest on people living alone, older neighbours, anyone managing a heart or breathing condition. One text, one phone call, one “how are you coping with this?” can be the thing that catches a problem early.

Look after yourself, and look after each other. 💙
