☀️Warm weather - important safety advice ☀️ 🌡️ During the current amber heat alert, remember: 🚗 Vehicle checks - check coolant, tyres, lights, and carry water for the journey! 🏊 Water safety - many drownings happen in inland/coastal waters. If someone’s in trouble, remember... float to live: ° tilt head back, relax, breathe ° move arms and legs gently in a star shape ° swim to safety, if you can, or shout for help. ⚠️ If you see someone in difficulty in the water, call 999 or 112. Never jump in yourself! Please be mindful of the increased risk of large outdoor fires too. You can help reduce the risk: 🍔 avoid disposable BBQs in parks or open spaces 🗑️ don’t leave glass bottles or rubbish behind 🚬 never drop cigarettes outdoors, make sure you put them out, right out! Look out for vulnerable friends, family and neighbours - check in and make sure they're able to keep cool and hydrated! Stay safe and enjoy the weather! ☀️🚒
