Following the recent Heat Health Alerts and high temperatures, we'll continue to monitor conditions at our sites throughout the summer - the wellbeing and safety of children, young people and our team will always be our priority.

 

We know how important our services are, particularly when other provision may be affected by the weather, so our aim is to remain open wherever possible. If we have to adjust our timetable or services in any way, we'll contacta our booked in families directly via phone, email and 'Famlyapp', and share broader updates here on our website.

​​

The NHS and GOV.UK Beat the Heat campaign have resources which may help when talking about staying safe in hot weather with your child or young person (be warned – the pictures include an ice lolly, so be prepared for requests!)

 

Staying safe:​ stay hydrated, wear sunscreen and a sun hat and stay in the shade or indoors to keep cool.

Heat exhaustions does not usually need emergency medical help if you can cool down

within 30 minutes. If it turns into heatstroke, it needs to be treated as an emergency.

For information on symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke, what you can do to

cool down, and in case of emergency, please see the NHS's advice:
