With children going back to school after the Summer Holidays, you might notice some illnesses starting to make their way around.

Children aged 5 and over can receive medicine (if needed) to treat a sore throat from pharmacists, and children aged 12 and over can receive medicine (if necessary) to treat sinusitis.
