🥒 Feeling the heat? Here’s a simple, refreshing recipe to help you stay cool and hydrated!

When temperatures rise, foods with a high water content can really help your body stay balanced - in fact, around 20% of your daily hydration comes from what you eat, not just what you drink.

Here’s a super‑easy Cooling Cucumber & Mint Refresher you can make in minutes ⏰

You’ll need:

- 1 cucumber, sliced
- A handful of fresh mint
- Juice of half a lemon
- Cold water or sparkling water
- Ice

How to make it:

Just add everything to a jug, give it a stir, and let it chill for 10–15 minutes. That’s it - light, hydrating, and perfect for hot days 💧

🔫 Who says Laser Tag is just for children?

Last week's Tea, Tag & Talk event brought together older adults, adults with additional needs, and even Andover Town Mayor Cllr Tony Burley for an afternoon packed with laughter, friendship and a little friendly competition.

From dodging lasers to sharing a cuppa afterwards, participants proved that trying something new, staying active and having fun has no age limit. One attendee enjoyed it so much, she's considering a laser tag party for her 76th birthday! 🎉

At Valley Leisure, we're passionate about creating inclusive opportunities that help people move more, connect with others and build confidence - all while having a great time.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make our first combined I Can Move More and Riverside Activity Zone event such a success. We can't wait to do it again!

🌞 Let’s talk hydration - especially with the summer heat kicking in!

Staying hydrated isn’t just about quenching your thirst… it’s actually essential for keeping your body working at its best. Here’s a quick fact you might not know:

👉 Even a 1–2% drop in hydration can affect your energy levels, concentration and mood.

That’s before you even feel thirsty - which is why sipping regularly is so important. A few simple ways to stay on top of it:

💧 Keep water nearby and sip throughout the day

🍋 Add fruit slices if you struggle with plain water

🍉 Choose hydrating foods like cucumber, melon, berries and yoghurt

😎 Avoid long periods in the heat where you can

Let’s all stay cool, hydrated, and feeling our best as the warm weather continues 🌼

🔥 Summer heat is here - let’s stay safe and keep cool!

With the warmer weather settling in, it’s really important to look after ourselves and each other. High temperatures can creep up on us, especially for older adults, people with long‑term conditions, and young children. A few simple steps can make a big difference:

💦 Stay hydrated - keep water nearby and sip regularly

😎 Keep your home cool - close curtains during the hottest part of the day

☀️ Avoid peak heat - try to go out early morning or later in the evening

🏡 Check in on others - a quick call or visit can really help

If you’re out and about joining us for activities, don’t worry - we’ll make sure there’s plenty of water and rest breaks. Let’s enjoy the sunshine safely and look after our community together!
