Extreme heat is more than a seasonal inconvenience. It is a growing public health concern.

According to the World Health Organization, heat-related mortality among adults aged 65 years and over increased by approximately 85% between 2000–2004 and 2017–2021. Heat can place additional strain on the body, worsening existing medical conditions and increasing the risk of serious illness.

While older adults and people with chronic conditions are among the most vulnerable, simple preventive measures, such as staying hydrated, avoiding prolonged exposure to heat, and recognising early warning signs, can help reduce the health risks associated with extreme temperatures.

It isn't there to confirm a suspicion. It's there to catch what can't yet be felt.

If you're over 50 with a history of smoking, it’s worth speaking with your doctor.
Early detection starts with a conversation.
