Mini eggs are the perfect size to block a small child’s airway and choke them. And, their hard shell can make it difficult to dislodge with standard first aid. That’s why they aren’t recommended for children under 4. So please stay safe and choose another treat for little ones.

1/3 ‼️Adolescence‼️ It seems our actors/media need to grab the headlines with emotive dramas to get much needed attention and focus of the issues faced by our children & young people. However, if it helps, all to the good! But…. WeSchoolNurses 💙 Wes Streeting

It can take just 15 seconds for a toddler to lose consciousness if a blind cord is caught around their neck – and they can stop breathing in 2-3 minutes. It happens quickly and silently. Learn more: capt.org.uk/blind-cords/ #ChildSafety

Many diseases, including polio, measles and tuberculosis, have largely receded because of vaccinations. This is precious but fragile progress. If kids don’t get vaccinated, these and more diseases will resurge.

We have a local authority-run scheme where if you agree to care for a disabled person, you can get up to £800 per week. Meanwhile unpaid carers get Carers Allowance of about £80 per week. It's scandalous... Not the £800 per week, but that Carers Allowance is so low.
