HEAT WAVE

TO KEEP SAFE DURING THE CURRENT HEAT WAVE, YOU SHOULD FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES: 

KEEP YOUR SKIN COVERED WHEN THE SUN SHINES -  "SLIP, SLAP, SLOP"   (SLIP ON A TEE SHIRT, SLAP ON A HAT, SLOP ON SOME SUN CREAM)

SPEND TIME IN THE SHADE BETWEEN 11.00 and 15.00 WHEN THE SUN IS AT IT'S HOTTEST

PROTECT YOUR EYES.  LONG TERM EXPOSURE TO SUNLIGHT INCREASES THE RISK OF CATARACTS

TAKE EXTRA CARE WITH CHILDREN - KEEP THEM IN THE SHADE

TO KEEP COOL INDOORS, OPEN WINDOWS AND CLOSE CURTAINS AGAINS THE GLARE OF THE SUN.

STAY HYDRATED - DRINK PLENTY OF WATER  -  REMEMBER:  IF YOU FEEL THIRSTY YOU ARE ALREADY DEHYDRATED
