❗A yellow heat health alert has been issued from Thursday 28 May at 4pm until Saturday 30 May at 8pm❗

Those most at risk of long periods of high temperature include older people, young children, and people with existing health conditions.

Following some simple advice this Bank Holiday will help keep you and your loved ones safe:

💧 Stay hydrated – drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don’t feel thirsty
🧴 Protect your skin – use sunscreen, wear a hat, and seek shade during peak sun hours
🏠 Keep cool indoors – close curtains in sunny rooms and open windows when it’s cooler outside
🫶 Look out for others – check in on those most at risk
🚶 Plan ahead – avoid strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day

We’re pleased to say that work is now underway to prepare the new pharmacy within Sudbury Community Health Centre.

While the pharmacy is not owned or operated by Siam Surgery, we know many of you have been interested in its progress, so we’ll continue to keep you updated here.

People visiting the Health Centre may notice a small amount of noise while these works are underway, but this will be kept to a minimum.
