⚕️ High blood pressure, often called the “silent killer,” usually has no obvious symptoms — yet it is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems.

📊 Regularly checking your blood pressure is one of the most important steps you can take for your long-term health. Small lifestyle changes such as improving your diet, increasing activity, and reducing salt can make a significant difference.

Emergency Alerts Test – Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm

What to know:
The UK Government will be running a test of the Emergency Alerts system at 3 pm on Sunday 7 September.

Phones and tablets that are compatible will emit a loud siren-like sound and vibrate, even if on silent.

You do not need to take any action during the alert — it's just a test.

This system is designed to warn you of local dangers like severe weather or other emergencies.

Important advice for those at risk of coercive control or domestic abuse: If you’re caring for someone who has a concealed phone or you're in a situation where unexpected alerts could cause harm, it’s vital to be aware and prepared.

Want to opt out?
You can turn off the Emergency Alerts for your device via this official page: gov.uk/alerts/opting-out

Need support or guidance? Leeds Women’s Aid offers tailored information and help on this:
leedswomensaid.co.uk/emergency-alert-test-sunday-7-september-2025

Why it's important:
Regular testing keeps the system reliable in real emergencies, when lives may depend on it.

Stay informed, stay safe.

Did you know? Every year, £26 million worth of medicines are wasted in our region alone — money that could go towards vital NHS services.

Many people reorder their prescriptions out of habit, without checking what they still have at home. But once medicines are returned to the pharmacy, they can’t be reused or recycled — they must be destroyed.

✅ Here's how you can help:
🔹 Check before you tick – Only order what you're running low on
🔹 Open your prescription bag at the pharmacy and return any extras immediately
🔹 Speak up – Tell your pharmacy if you've stopped taking a medicine
🔹 Stay safe – Don’t stockpile; unused meds can be harmful to children, pets, and the environment
🔹 Take your meds to hospital – Bring your current meds with you to avoid duplicates

♻️ Stay well, stay safe, stay green – A simple change makes a big difference.
