Stay Safe and Cool During the Heatwave!
We care about you at Barcroft Medical Centre
Day 1 – Stay Hydrated
- Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day, even if you do not feel thirsty.
- Avoid alcohol and very sugary drinks.
Day 2 – Keep Your Home Cool
- Close curtains or blinds during the day to block direct sunlight.
- Open windows when it feels cooler outside (usually in the evening).
Day 3 – Dress Comfortably
- Wear light-coloured, loose-fitting clothes made from natural materials like cotton.
- Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses if going outside.
Day 4 – Avoid Going Out at Peak Times
- Try to stay indoors between 11am and 3pm, when it’s hottest.
- stay in the shade and take your own shade with you.
