The first sign of a stroke might not seem like much. Like - not being able to raise your arm. Or struggling to smile. Or slurring when you speak. Any sign of a stroke is always an emergency.
Face or arm or speech, at the first sign, it's time to call 999

For every missed GP Practice appointment, it is a missed opportunity to see another patient. By cancelling unwanted appointments, even if it is a few minutes before, it means other patients have an opportunity to be seen more quickly. Contact your surgery to cancel or reschedule

Measles cases are rising in England.
You can still ask your GP practice for the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine if your child has missed either of their 2 doses.

Lots of people, maybe your friends, have stopped drinking during the pandemic, lockdowns in particular. Many are really nervous about meeting up with you again because they think you might pressure them to drink. Be a good mate...
