☀ With a yellow Heat-Health Alert in place until 5pm on Wednesday 27 May, it may be tempting to cool off in open water such as rivers, lakes and reservoirs but cold water can kill.

❄ Think before you or friends enter water – cold water shock can affect even strong swimmers.

⚠️ A working smoke alarm gives you early warning.

Test it at least once a month and never ignore a low-battery beep.
