Summer is a great time to get outside, stay active and enjoy everything Lancashire has to offer.

While it’s a season full of fun, it’s also important that we all take simple steps to stay safe and well. From protecting yourself in the sun and staying hydrated, to keeping safe around water and looking out for family, friends and others in your community, a little awareness can make a big difference.

Lancashire County Council has a valuable web page that shares advice, support and local initiatives that will help everyone enjoy the summer safely.

It gives information about:

• Staying safe in warmer weather

• Staying safe around water

• Road safety in summer

• Protect yourself against scams this summer

• Support for your health, safety and wellbeing this summer

• Your health and wellbeing

• Details of the new Lancashire Service Finder

By taking care of ourselves and each other, we can all play a part in making this a safe, healthy and happy summer for everyone.
