The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm.

Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate. You will not need to take any action.

The Emergency Alerts system is used to warn if there’s a danger to life nearby, including extreme weather. Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency.

You may have seen in the news today that new guidelines require manufacturers to reduce sugar and salt in all shop-bought baby foods. Manufacturers will have 18 months to reformulate their products, lowering sugar and salt levels without adding sweeteners. Plus, clearer labelling will make it easier for families to understand exactly what’s in their baby’s food.

It's worth remembering that shop-bought options like pouches, jars and snacks should still only be used occasionally – not every day, and babies under 12 months don’t need snacks at all (homemade or shop-bought). 🍎💚

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are common and can be passed on during s*x or through s*xual contact.
Many STIs have no symptoms, so you can have an STI without knowing it. The only way to know for sure is to get tested.
Know where to find your nearest s*xual health clinic: ➡️ https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/s*xual-health-services/find-a-s*xual-health-clinic/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwOGU3d1EzZUxGSzdXWHAxMAEe-xJsHElbQ_iffUxetfqvbWsgtabqqX6YmXu7Qf_e4z8FVLz4HAZ87tGUDZc_aem_56SdFmhhMhAFdX6EPfPQlg

When you find out you are pregnant, you can refer yourself for NHS pregnancy care so you start care with a midwife right away.

Once you sign up online, the maternity team will contact you to book your first appointment with a midwife.

You should do this by the 10th week of pregnancy, if possible, but it’s never too late to start. If you're over 10 weeks, refer yourself as soon as you can.

Start here: https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/refer-yourself-for-nhs-pregnancy-care/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwOGU3d1EzZUxGSzdXWHAxMAEeSzCMmFkDiuMs5GpexKHyRuQq--obRjOsaWt4SUi1o_HqT5SMZqDxiIPuY8I_aem_akcUUo72fRM6yIZWGh1qpg
