It is estimated that there are around 3,000 - 4,000 cases of Lyme Disease each year in the UK - would you know what symptoms to look for in yourself or your child?

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection which can be transmitted to humans from infected tick bites. Knowing how to spot the signs of Lyme disease and getting early treatment is important in mitigating severe complications such as nerve and heart problems and long-term post-infection fatigue.

Symptoms include:

- A round or oval bull’s eye like rash around the bite which can appear up to 3 months after an infected bite. The rash is usually flat or slightly raised, and pink, red or purple - on darker skin it may resemble a bruise. It may get bigger over several days or weeks, and can appear on different parts of the body.
-,A high temperature, or feeling hot and shivery.
- A headache.
- Muscle and joint pain.
- Tiredness and loss of energy.
- Neck stiffness.

If you suspect Lyme disease, see your GP as soon as possible. It’s much easier to treat if it is diagnosed early.

But first - prevention! Take steps to avoid tick bites in the first place and learn how to remove and treat tick bites in the event of finding one on you or your child.



As the weather improves and we finally get outdoors and enjoy those country walks, make sure you are prepared for ticks!

Shocking statistic 😢

10,164 children were burned or scalded in 2025 and admitted to Specialist Burns Services across the UK.

These figures represent the more serious burn injuries and do not include the thousands more children treated in A&E each year. This is the first year since we've been recording data that the number has tipped over 10,000 - which makes this data even more worrying.

Data like this helps highlight the scale of burn injuries impacting children and why prevention and awareness remain so important.

Children’s Burns Trust works with NHS burn services and partners across the UK to reduce the number of burns and scalds happening to children, while supporting families impacted by burn injuries.

Our founder Kate Ball - - and her husband Matt were at the Elite Franchise Awards last night where was nominated for a diversity award.

We didn’t win that unfortunately, but we are incredibly proud of the hard work we have done on ensuring we are absolutely the most inclusive first aid training provider in the UK.

They were presented with our certificate for being in the Top 100 franchises - this is a huge deal, there are over 1,000 franchise brands in the U.K. so it’s brilliant to have made the Top 100. 💚

What if we told you that a high temperature could cause your child to have a seizure, and many parents have never even heard of it?

It’s called a febrile seizure, and more often than not, when parents come to our baby & child first aid classes, it’s the first time they learn that this can happen.

We never share information to frighten you. We share it because knowledge replaces panic with composure 💚

If your child ever experiences a febrile seizure and you’ve never heard of one before, it can be incredibly distressing. But when you understand what’s happening and what to do, you feel calmer, more confident and in control.

Forewarned really is forearmed when it comes to our little ones.
