Staying active as you get older is one of the best ways to maintain independence, improve wellbeing and reduce the risk of conditions like heart disease and stroke. It’s never too late to start, and even small amounts of movement can make a difference. πŸ’™πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈβœ¨

For older adults, the NHS recommends:
β€’ Being active every day, even with light activities πŸŒΏπŸ’™
β€’ Aiming for around 150 minutes of moderate activity each week, such as brisk walking πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈβœ¨
β€’ Doing strength exercises at least twice a week to keep muscles strong πŸ’ͺ🩺
β€’ Including balance and flexibility activities to reduce the risk of falls βš–οΈπŸŒ±

Activities like walking, gardening, swimming or gentle exercise classes can all help improve physical and mental wellbeing, as well as reduce loneliness and support independence.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers, and recognising the signs early can make a real difference to outcomes. The most common symptom is blood in your p*e, even if it only happens once or is not painful, and it should always be checked by a GP.

Other symptoms to look out for include:
β€’ Pain, burning or stinging when passing urine πŸ’§βš οΈ
β€’ Needing to p*e more often or urgently 🚽⏱️
β€’ Repeated urinary infections πŸ”πŸ©Ί
β€’ Pain in the lower tummy or back πŸ€•βœ¨
β€’ Feeling very tired or losing weight without trying πŸ’™πŸ“‰

These symptoms are often caused by other conditions, but it’s important not to ignore them. Getting checked early can lead to earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment.

Maintaining a healthy weight is important for your overall health and wellbeing. Even small changes can make a big difference, helping to reduce your risk of serious conditions like heart disease, type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. πŸ’™βš–οΈβœ¨

Losing just a small amount of weight, around 5–10% of your body weight, can have significant health benefits, including improving blood pressure, cholesterol and energy levels.

Simple ways to work towards a healthier weight include:
β€’ Eating a balanced diet and making healthier food choices πŸ₯—πŸŒΏ
β€’ Being more active and moving regularly πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’ͺ
β€’ Setting realistic, achievable goals πŸ“Šβœ¨
β€’ Making small, sustainable changes over time πŸ’™πŸŒ±

The NHS Better Health programme offers free tools, apps and a 12-week plan to help you build healthier habits and stay on track.

If your child or young person has an earache, your local pharmacy can often help without needing a GP appointment. Through the Pharmacy First service, pharmacists can assess symptoms, give advice and provide treatment where appropriate for children aged 1 to 17. πŸ’™πŸ‘ΆπŸ©Ίβœ¨

Pharmacists can:
β€’ Assess your child’s symptoms and check for signs of infection πŸ”πŸ’™
β€’ Offer advice on managing pain and symptoms at home πŸŒΏπŸ’Š
β€’ Provide treatment, including some prescription medicines if needed πŸ’ŠπŸ©Ί
β€’ Refer you to a GP or other service if symptoms need further care πŸš‘βš οΈ

Earache is a common condition in children, and many cases can be safely managed with support from your pharmacist. Getting help locally can save time and ensure your child gets the right care quickly.
