Part of #30days30waysUK; Day 19 #PreparednessMonth #mentalhealth
We all know by now "It’s ok not to be ok!" but what does that actually mean?
... simply, whatever your feeling thats ok, its what you do with your feelings that matter.

⚠️Think⚠️
If something was to happen to you while you were out, would somebody know you have a pet at home?
#PetPreparedness
Carry this handy card in your 👜🚗. It can help to identify that there is somebody important left at home

Most of us welcome #hotweather, but when it's too hot, there are #healthrisks.
When hot weather hits this #summer, make sure it does not harm you or anyone you know.

The main risks posed by a #heatwave are:
🔅not drinking enough water (#dehydration)
🔆overheating, which can make symptoms worse for people who already have problems with their heart or breathing: youtu.be/jvGC_dQJUtE

Gentle reminder that many antidepressants / antipsychotics can mess with your heat sensitivity 🌞
Please take it easy as it gets warmer and prepare with:
🥤water
🧴sunscreen
👕layers/light clothes
🧢cover/shade
☎️emergency contacts

As a new term at university begins, it's important to look after each other and know how to keep yourself, and your friends safe during a night out.
Read our advice on what to do if you have had too much to drink, or if you're worried about a friend: bit.ly/3RnhlAQ
