As the UK dips in and out of some serious heat waves this summer, and most people don't have the luxury of owning air conditioning in their home or office, we wanted to share some top tips to help keep you cool and safe in the heat... 1. Stay shaded Avoid being outside in the direct sun if possible (especially with young kids and animals) and keep indoors or in the shade where you can. 2. Stay hydrated It's simple but SO important - water, soft drinks, lollies keep you hydrated and cool you down. 3. Block out the sun Keep blinds or curtains closed as much as you can to help keep the room cool and only open the window when the temperature drops. If it's really hot outside then opening the window will only let the warm air in. 4. Dress accordingly Too many layers will make you feel even hotter. Wear light colours made from breathable, cotton material. 5. Have a quick dip Have a nice luke warm bath or shower before bed as it will help the body cool down naturally allowing you to sleep more comfortably. Having a paddling pool in the garden or quick dip in a cool shower will also cool you down throughout the day. 6. Invest in a decent fan There are many different types of fans out that will help cool you down and keep air moving round the room. You can also place it by an open window facing out to direct the warm air out of the window. 7. If you have a baby... DO NOT place muslins or blankets over prams. This is such a common thing to do and yet SO DANGEROUS! Instead of keeping your baby cool and shaded, this will actually create a greenhouse effect and build up dangerous levels of heat inside the pram. Instead, use a clip on parasol/ sunshade with open sides to allow ventilation throughout. Always be checking on baby and in temperatures over 26 degrees aim to keep any time outside in the pram to a minimum. If you have a young baby, place a thin muslin between you and baby's skin when holding, cuddling or feeding to prevent overheating. This will keep you both cool and comfortable. 8.
