Help and guidance are available if you want to cut back, take a break, or rethink your relationship with alcohol. πŸ’ͺπŸƒβœ¨

If you’ve got a minor illness like a cold or upset stomach, you can often look after yourself safely at home.

Make sure you have a well-stocked medicine cabinet with things like paracetamol and indigestion remedies to help treat minor issues from the comfort of your own home.

🀧🦠 Cold or flu - knowing the difference might not seem urgent, but it can help you act right. A cold often develops slowly and stays mostly around your nose and throat, while the flu tends to hit fast, affects your whole body and leaves you feeling really unwell.

πŸ‘‰ Check what to expect and when to seek help:

Rest well, keep hydrated and if things feel worse than β€œjust a cold”, don’t hesitate to seek advice.
