Friday drinks? Boozy socials?
Work outings can often revolve around drinking. But not everyone drinks – or wants to drink so much. So why not mix things up so everyone feels included without the pressures of the pub?
🟧 Drink less tip: Suggest or plan a social that doesn’t revolve around drinking – like a coffee catch-up, walk, or quiz night.

🔔 Do you use (or know somebody who uses) a personal alarm that connects to your landline?

Landline phones are changing across the UK. Over the next few years, calls will be made through the internet (broadband) instead of the old copper phone lines. This could stop some telecare alarms (like fall alarms or emergency pendants) from working.

👉It’s a good idea to get in touch with your phone provider to check that your alarm will still work when the changes happen.

For more information please visit:

If you or someone you know uses a telecare alarm, you must call the landline provider. They will help make sure your alarm keeps working though the switchover, and they can tell you whether you need an upgraded device, new adapter, device battery backup, or a mobile phone backup.
