Worth being aware of
With temperatures set to rise in the coming days the Public Health Agency is urging people to protect themselves from the sun and to look out for older and more vulnerable people. Although there are no current weather warning for Northern Ireland, it is still important to remember the need to protect ourselves from the strong UV rays.
Dr Brid Farrell, Deputy Director of Public Health at the PHA, said: “With hot weather being a rarity here it is understandable that we all want to get out and enjoy the sunshine, but we’re asking people to make sure they’re protecting themselves when they’re out and about and check in on friends and family members.
“It is important to look after older people and those more susceptible to potential health issues in warmer weather. If you have a friend or relative who is less mobile or might need a little help, make sure to check in on them. Help them stay hydrated with regular cold drinks, avoiding alcohol. Help them keep their home cool by shutting curtains if the sun is coming through and opening the windows in the evening or at night when it’s cooler.
