It has been hot out there! Our Befriending Team have been in touch with our older clients ensuring they are keeping themselves hydrated and looking after themselves during the current heatwave. The message to our older clients during the heatwave was to stay in if possible and keep cool. They have all done a sterling job in making sure they look after themselves in the heat. Luckily we don’t experience this level of heat too often but it does tie in with our recent Climate Change discussions which we have been holding recently in various Retirement and Sheltered Housing in the Brent area. These discussions we have held with older clients has shown how they have noticed a big change in the seasons over the years and the latest heatwave is proof that the climate is changing and we need to be mindful of our health and wellbeing in the heat!
The Befriending Team will continue to keep in touch with the older members of the community to ensure they keep themselves well through the current heatwave and all types of weather we may experience in the future hot or cold!
