As temps reach over 30, we thought it might be an idea to give you some tips for keeping cool in the heat

🌞 5 Tips to Help Older Folks Cope in 30°C+ Heat 🌡️

💧 Stay hydrated – drink water often, avoid alcohol & too much caffeine.

🏡 Keep homes cool – close blinds, use fans, open windows at night.

👕 Dress light – loose, light-coloured clothes & wide hats help.

🚫 Avoid peak heat – stay indoors 11am–3pm, rest in shade if out.

📞 Check in often – watch for dizziness, confusion or tiredness.

Let’s keep our older loved ones safe in the heat! 💙

Thank you to all. Age UK.
