The main reason they are issued is for the healthcare industry, advice to the public to take care but primarily for the care industries.


When we see certain conditions and expect specific heat thresholds are passed or expected to be passed, warnings are issued and sent to relevant health professionals and people working in social care, It allows health professionals to minimise the impact of the heat on peoples' health.

It was 27 degrees on the shore of Llyn Brianne today, which is very hot indeed for us here in Wales !
