Please take the NHS Amber Heat Health Warning seriously, particularly if you are elderly, vulnerable or caring for someone who is: keep cool, stay hydrated and look out for one another.

An amber heat-health alert is in place across parts of England from today until 14 August.

During an amber alert, hot weather can put more people’s health at risk – not just those who are usually more vulnerable.

Older people, young children and people with existing health conditions may be particularly at risk.

Take extra care and look out for others who may struggle in the heat.
