🌞 Heatwave Food Safety Tips 🌞

With the hot weather, it’s important to keep your food fresh and safe to eat.

If you’re collecting food from our food stall, here are a few simple tips:

🥶 Take your food home as soon as possible after collecting.
🛍️ Bring an insulated cool bag if you can, especially if you have a longer journey.
❄️ Put chilled and frozen foods in the fridge or freezer as soon as you get home.
🥗 Store fresh fruit and vegetables correctly to help them last longer.
🍽️ Refrigerate leftovers within an hour in very hot weather and enjoy them within 2–3 days, or freeze them.
🚫 Don’t leave meat, dairy or other chilled foods sitting out in the heat.

Small steps can help reduce food waste and keep you and your family safe during the heatwave.

Stay cool, stay hydrated and take care! 💛

☀️ Amber Heat Alert in Place ☀️

With temperatures set to remain very high, we’re asking everyone visiting our stall to take a few extra precautions to stay safe and comfortable in the heat.

Please remember to:
💧 Bring plenty of water and drink regularly
🧴 Apply sunscreen and reapply throughout the day
🧢 Wear a hat and light, loose-fitting clothing
😎 Protect your eyes with sunglasses where appropriate
🌳 Take advantage of shaded areas whenever possible

Our volunteers will be helping to direct queues into the shade where we can. Please keep an eye on children, older relatives, and anyone who may be more vulnerable to the effects of hot weather.

If at any point you feel unwell, dizzy, or overheated, please speak to a member of our volunteer team immediately.

Stay safe, stay hydrated, and enjoy! ☀️💛
