Today is National Burn Awareness Day.

Approximately 35,000 children are burnt every year by hot drinks!
Please keep hot drinks out of reach of children, including kettle cables!

If you would like to arrange a first aid course for you/ friends/ family then do get in touch x

Today is National Burn Awareness Day - a day where we raise awareness of the huge number of burns injuries occurring in the UK. The SafeTea campaign focuses on preventing hot drink burns to children

Interesting!
If you're child is over 1 yr old and has swallowed a button battery:
- urgently get them to a&e. - give 1-2 teaspoons of honey every 5 mins until battery removed, to help reduce tissue damage!

Remember always keep batteries out of reach and be vigilant with objects that contain batteries!!

New guideline recommends starting honey treatment at home and visiting emergency room immediately to prevent damage.

Cool burns for 20 mins, don't apply creams or lotions, seek medical advice!

All burns should be treated with 20 minutes if cool RUNNING water as soon as possible. Clothing should be removed. Nothing else should be applied to the wound, no creams, just water. Then seek medical attention.
Spread the word 👍🏻💧💧💧

Happiness can sometimes seem like the elusive pot of gold at the end of a rainbow...

I like this idea of taking simple steps to remind you happiness is in all the little things in life, if you slow down and take time to see it 😊
