You may have seen media reports about confirmed cases of invasive meningococcal disease in Kent.

It is important to be aware of the symptoms of meningitis - a serious condition where the protective layers around the brain and spinal cord become inflamed.

You can find trusted information on the NHS website, including signs and symptoms: https://orlo.uk/O08mH

The MenACWY vaccine helps protect against life-threatening illnesses like meningitis and sepsis. It is offered as a routine NHS vaccine in secondary school, but can be given up to the age of 25 if it has been missed.
Our East Riding in-school vaccination provider Vaccination UK offered this vaccine along with the Td/IPV vaccine (3-in-1 teenage booster) over the last half term, normally to those in Year 9 (age 13 to 14).

If your teen missed their in-school clinic you can take them to a community catch-up clinic over Easter: https://orlo.uk/0m9ye
Catch-up clinics will also be offered in our schools over the summer term, following the HPV vaccines this half term. Call the team: (01482) 453 690 or email: hullandeastriding@vaccinationuk.co.uk

It's important to know the symptoms and understand what current vaccinations protect against. Although anyone can get meningitis, it's most common in babies, young children, teenagers, and young adults

Symptoms can appear in any order and not everyone gets them all. They include:
- high temperature
- headache
- vomiting
- a rash that does not fade when a glass is rolled over it
- neck stiffness
- dislike of bright lights
- confusions, drowsiness or difficulty waking
- cold hands and feet, pale or blotchy skin, fast breathing (signs of septicaemia)

Real Christmas trees are often the heart of the home. But they need to be well-watered throughout Christmas so they’re less likely to catch fire or burn quickly. If your tree becomes dry, remove it right away.

Plus, whether your tree is real or fake, don’t forget to:
• Keep it away from heat sources and candles
• Avoid overloading sockets
• Turn off the fairy lights before you go to bed or go out
• Remember to test your smoke alarms
