ºù«ÍÞapp

There has been a flurry of activity from ºù«ÍÞapp Borough Council staff this week with unusually high temperatures and humidity giving the potential for health risks to the town’s vulnerable people.

Sheltered housing residents have received the bulk of our support with all the sites provided with advice on keeping cool, signs of heat exhaustion to watch out for and the vital need to maintain body hydration.

The homelessness team, together with ºù«ÍÞapp Open House, have also been making sure that anyone rough sleeping in ºù«ÍÞapp has additional support by supplying water, sunscreen and taking the chance to begin the process of offering them suitable temporary accommodation.

Our ºù«ÍÞapp Wellbeing team’s mobile unit has been supporting the officers working within sheltered housing during the September sunny spell to give more expert advice. On Thursday the unit was at Broadfield, visiting the library, community centre and Attlee House Sheltered Housing. 

Next week they start in Feroners Court. Read our helpful hints for a healthy home article for more information.
