Alcohol is everywhere - in the moments we celebrate, the ads we see, and the
habits we don’t question . Yet we rarely stop to think about the impact it is
having on our health and wellbeing, as well as our relationships.

This is a chance to pause and reflect on the role
alcohol is playing in our lives.

Look out for symptoms of heat related illnesses in yourself and others during hot
weather
• If you or others feel dizzy, weak, sick or are intensely thirsty during hot weather, this may be heat exhaustion. Move to a cool place, rehydrate and cool your body down
• Rest immediately in a cool place if you have painful muscular spasms and drink plenty of cool drinks. Seek medical attention if you feel unusual symptoms or if symptoms persist
• A high temperature, confusion and breathing fast can be symptoms of heat stroke, which is a medical emergency. Other serious symptoms include skin that is no longer sweating and seizures. If you suspect someone has heatstroke, call 999, put them in the recovery position and keep trying to cool the person down.

Hot weather is forecast this week in the South West. 🥵

Look out for vulnerable family, friends and neighbours. Make sure they are aware of how they can keep cool and hydrated.
Stay well by drinking plenty of fluids, stay in the shade when the sun in strongest (11am - 3pm) and limit strenuous physical activity during the hottest part of the day.
Close blinds and curtains on windows that are exposed to direct sunlight.

Increasing temperatures in excess of 25 degrees celsius are associated with severe illness and excess heat-related deaths in vulnerable people.

Hi everyone, I’m Katie Matthews, a Lived Experience Policy Officer at NHS England. I wanted to share one of my poems about how I look after my mental and physical wellbeing

For me, wellbeing isn’t about being perfect — it’s about finding what works.

From writing poetry to help clear my head, to walking dogs and dancing to keep me active while enjoying the moment

It’s a reminder that looking after yourself doesn't have to be complicated. It can be creative, fun and completely your own.

This poem reflects my journey of finding simple ways to take care of myself… and learning that “that’s enough.”

Tick awareness is an important step towards reducing the chance of getting a tick-borne disease like Lyme disease. Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne infection in the UK.

Make it a habit to carry out a tick check – an easy way to make sure you haven’t picked up a tick while outdoors. Prompt removal of ticks reduces the chance of tick-borne pathogens being transmitted to humans by feeding ticks
