Binge drinking can have a serious impact on your physical and mental health 🍺
Binge drinking means drinking a large amount of alcohol in a short period of time.
Drinking too much alcohol can increase the risk of accidents, injuries, poor sleep, mental health difficulties, liver disease, high blood pressure and some cancers 💙
Keeping track of your units and having alcohol-free days can help you drink more safely 👍
Small changes can make a big difference to your health and wellbeing 🌟

Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are forms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that affect the digestive system.

Symptoms aren’t always visible, but they can have a significant impact on daily life.

If you’re experiencing ongoing symptoms like diarrhoea, abdominal pain or unexplained weight loss, it’s important to seek medical advice.

Support and information is available from https://www.crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/

🎓 Starting university or college this autumn? 💉

You could be eligible for a MenB (Meningitis B) vaccination through a new NHS programme launching this summer.

Living in shared accommodation can increase the risk of meningococcal disease, but the 2-dose MenB vaccine helps protect against this serious infection.

📅 From 20 July 2026, eligible young adults can receive their vaccination at participating local pharmacies.

If you’re eligible, keep an eye on your NHS App, text messages or emails for your invitation, or visit the NHS website to book when appointments open.

Protect yourself before term starts. 💙

Helping children build healthy habits early can support their wellbeing now and in the future 💙

Healthy habits don’t have to mean big changes. Small steps each day can make a real difference 👍

Some simple ways to encourage healthy habits include:
• eating meals together as a family
• drinking more water instead of sugary drinks
• reducing screen time and encouraging active play
• getting enough sleep
• involving children in shopping and cooking 🍎

Children often learn by example, so positive role modelling can help encourage healthy eating, movement and balanced routines 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Healthy habits are about supporting overall wellbeing, confidence and long-term health rather than focusing on weight alone 💫

Good sleep is also important for growing children, helping with learning, mood and energy levels 😴

Remember, every family is different and small, realistic changes are often the easiest to maintain 💙
