Good afternoon our amazing .

November is a busy month, not only for us as a business supporting many well known organisations and businesses; but also with many health related organisations raising public health awareness on many issues they feel so strongly about.

Most of us have heard of "Movember", where awareness is raised for Men's Health, but there's more than just that happening this month.

Come back regularly to learn more about what else is coming up this month. We strongly believe awareness plays a huge part in prevention, and even if we help just one person through our educational posts then we're extremely happy.

Awareness days are so important in highlighting important issues and concerns, promoting events to support community involvement, and providing free education to our friends and families to keep everyone safe.

🦠Bug of the Month🦠

Let's start with something seasonal - Flu, also referred to as influenza.

⭐What is it?
Flu is a contagious respiratory viral infection.

⭐What are the symptoms?
- a sudden high temperature
- an aching body
- feeling tired or exhausted
- a dry cough
- a sore throat
- a headache
- difficulty sleeping
- loss of appetite
- diarrhoea or tummy pain
- feeling sick and being sick

⭐What can we do to help and protect ourselves and others?
- Have your annual flu vaccination (if you can)
- Wash your hands often with warm water and soap
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze (if you do not have a tissue, cough or sneeze into the bend of your elbow, not into your hand)
- Bin used tissues as quickly as possible
- Get loads of rest and sleep
- Keep hydrated with water
- Take paracetamol and ibuprofen to lower your temperature if required (please always read the box to make sure you have the correct dose)
- Keep warm, but please remember to check your temperature. If you feel cold that may be as a result of the temperature, and by wrapping up it will make you feel worse.

❗ Flu can kill. That's not been dramatic. Several thousand die each year as a result of flu. Let's protect each other, and the NHS.

For more information please visit the NHS website (link below), or call your GP or 111.

⛔ Please only call 999 or visit your local Emergency Department in an emergency, or if you:
- get sudden chest pain
- have difficulty breathing
- start coughing up a lot of blood

Today is World Menopause Day.

Even in the 21st Century, talking about menopause, it's symptoms and effects on women can be seen as taboo. Let's break that thought and get talking about it.

Menopause is a natural biological process which affects women differently. Some may have a variety of symptoms, others might have none at all. However, our colleagues, loved ones, and those closest to us who are currently going through perimenopause or menopause may need the support and understanding of their friends, family and managers around them from time to time.

Now, to the men amongst us. This affects us too. Please don't say things like "it's just hot flushes", "don't be moody" or "you're getting old". Believe me, they don't help... Please educate yourselves, learn about the symptoms, listen without judging, be patient and promote open communication; but above all, be supportive.

The website has information about symptoms, self care and other treatment options, along with links to support groups.

https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/menopause/

Let's look after and support each other.
