We all love a park on a summer's day, but maybe less so if it's filled with wasps, right?!

In a recent BBC News article, Prof Seirian Sumner of University College London said that her gut feeling is that "all the signs are, based on the weather and other insect populations, it is going to be a good year for wasps".*

If you are heading to a park or summer garden this weekend, take care and swipe through our slides to find out about how to treat a sting if it happens.

With the devastating news last week that a child in Liverpool died after contracting measles, we thought it would be a good time to remind you about what measles is and how to prevent or deal with an infection.

Please speak to your health visitor or GP if you have concerns about vaccinations 💚

💚 We love seeing grandparents and extended family members attending our baby & child first aid classes. It's so brilliant that parents understand how important it is that everyone who looks after their little ones understands basic first aid, how to spot signs of something more serious and what to do in an emergency.

All skills that are taught in our baby & child classes!

We offer open classes across Fife and Forth Valley that you can book onto at anytime and we also offer private classes for families or groups of friends - you sort the venue (your home!) and we'll come to you!

Group Strep B (GBS) is the most common cause of life-threatening infection in babies up to 90 days old*

Often, families only hear about group B Strep AFTER their baby is seriously ill with it. That's what Group B Strep Awareness month is all about - ensuring that parents-to-be know the signs and symptoms.

Group B Strep is a relatively common bacterial infection, but it can cause problems if it spreads from a pregnant mother to the baby.

Although testing is not routinely offered on the NHS, tests are available to purchase privately - you can find more information on this on the website.

Have you been affected by Group B Strep in pregnancy, or was your baby affected postnatally?
