☀️ Another sunny weekend in Grampian… don’t worry, we’re just as confused as you are. Remember...

🧴 When it comes to SPF, thirty is fine, but fifty is fabulous. The number indicates how long it will take UVB rays to redden the skin with product compared to no product.

🥄 Be generous. The NHS advises using 6 - 8 teaspoons per person, per application, to ensure all-over coverage.

👥 Find a friend to help with any tricky-to-reach areas. Always remember the back of your neck, ears, hands, and lips.

🕒 Give your sunscreen time to absorb and do its job properly.

🔁 Re-apply regularly - at least every two hours and more frequently if you've been swimming.

⛱️ Stay in the shade between 11am - 3pm wherever possible; this is when the sun is at its highest and strongest.

🤠 A wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses with UV protection are essential.

🚰 Stay hydrated!

💚 NHS Grampian is asking people across the region to get ‘Green Bag ready’ and bring medicines with you if you are coming into hospital.

A patient medicine bag or 'Green Bag' is a reusable, re-sealable green bag for putting medicines in – ideally in their original packaging. It’s not a new scheme but it is being re-launched to promote patient independence and safety. It comes after a campaign to ‘Only Order What You Need’ was shared last year and is part of ongoing work to reduce medicines wastage across the region.
