It’s back to school this week!

But if your child's feeling under the weather, it can sometimes be tricky to decide whether they should stay at home or not.

The NHS website has helpful advice on different conditions to help you.

MMRV is now part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme, replacing the MMR vaccine.

It protects against measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox.

Chickenpox is very common and can sometimes lead to serious complications, so vaccination helps reduce the risk of serious illness as children grow.

You don’t need to do anything — your GP will be in touch when your child is due.

Happy New Year! 🎉

This time of year can feel tough when everyone’s talking about resolutions or big goals. Just remember to take each day as it comes - if you can, try to find little ways to move more and remind yourself that what you’re doing is already enough 🤗

Share this with someone who needs this reminder 💗

Encouraging the whole family to wash their hands will remove dirt, viruses and bacteria and stops them spreading to other people, surfaces and objects which can spread illnesses such as food poisoning, flu or diarrhoea.

To beat the bugs, sing ‘Happy Birthday’ twice and keep washing your hands until you’re done!
