New Year’s Eve is one of the busiest nights of the year for ambulance services across the country.

If you're out celebrating, we want you to have a fantastic night, but please enjoy the festivities safely.

If you’re drinking alcohol, make sure you have something to eat beforehand, stay hydrated with water or soft drinks, and plan your journey home. Don't end your night in the back of an ambulance!

Please save 999 for life-threatening emergencies. If it’s urgent, but not life-threatening, NHS 111 can help find the right care for you.

SOME CHRISTMAS HEALTH & SAFETY ADVISE.....

Little Donkey, Little donkey, Little donkey on the dusty road. Got to keep on plodding onwards, with your precious load...

The RSPCA have issued strict guidelines with regard to how heavy a load a donkey of small stature is permitted to carry, also included in the guidelines is guidance regarding how often to feed the donkey and how many rest breaks are required over a four hour plodding period.

Please note that due to the increased risk of pollution from the dusty road, Mary and Joseph are required to wear face masks to prevent inhalation of any airborne particles, and goggles to avoid risk of eye injury from kicked up stones etc.

The donkey has also expressed his discomfort at being labelled ‘little’ and would prefer just to be simply referred to as Mr Donkey. To comment upon his height or lack thereof may be considered an infringement of his equine rights.
