About this toolkit
This toolkit supports UKHSA’s Adverse Weather and Health Plan and Weather-Health Alerting (WHA) system.
The communication material in this toolkit relates specifically to hot weather and is intended to provide basic health information that can be communicated during hot spells so that the right messages reach the right people at the right time.
There may be reputational risks from communicating advice seen as too precautionary when many may just want to enjoy some sunshine.
It is not an easy message to get across, but it is important due to the significant impacts on health that occur during hot spells.
The content included in this toolkit can be used to target both public and professional audiences.
