Severe weather warning

The Met Office have today (8th January 2021) issued a Level 3 Cold Weather Alert. There is a 90% probability of severe cold weather/icy conditions between 9.00am on Friday 8 January and 9.00am on Monday 11 January in parts of England. This weather could increase the health risks to vulnerable patients and disrupt the delivery of services.

Full details on weather conditions are published on the Met Office website.

Vaccines scams warning

Criminals are sending out texts and emails trying to make money from the pandemic, often with links to convincing fake NHS websites. Please remember that the NHS will NEVER ask for payment details so any requests for them will be fraudulent ones.
