Hot weather can be dangerous
Everyone can be affected by hot weather. There are simple ways to keep cool and stay hydrated in summer. • Avoid being outdoors in the hottest part of the day as much as possible. If you have to go outside, seek shade or shelter. • Keep your home cool by closing curtains and blinds to block out the sun and using air conditioning or fans.
• Limit physical activity, like housework or exercise, to early in the morning when temperatures are lower. • Drink water regularly even if you don’t feel thirsty. • Take water with you if going outside. • Keep in touch with family and friends.
