Stay safe in the warm weather
Hounslow residents are being urged to take precautions to stay safe during the continued warm weather.
While the hot weather is a time for many to enjoy, some people can become uncomfortable due to the rise in temperature and can become unwell due to overheating.
Typical health problems caused by hot weather include dehydration, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
Local A&E services are busier than usual due to health issues related to the warm weather. Waiting times to be seen are up to 11 hours. A&E is for life-threatening emergencies. Knowing where to go can get you the help you need quickly. Start with www.111.nhs.uk
Please take extra care during the warm weather. Protect yourselves and help relieve pressure from frontline health services.
