    Public Health England (PHE) issues cold weather alerts and health warnings following the arrival of colder weather in some parts of England.

    Further snow and ice warnings across England have prompted PHE doctors to warn people in areas likely to be affected, to plan ahead now.

    Forecasts from the Met Office suggest large parts of southern England will see freezing temperatures, significant snowfall and possibly even frozen rain over the next few days.

    PHE’s Dr Thomas Waite said:

    With more cold and for some snow on the way, now is the time to think ahead. Consider what you need to stock up on. Do you need food or essential supplies such as medicines? It may be harder for some people to get out later this week when more snow arrives, so if you know someone at risk, someone with heart or lung conditions, young children or someone who is over 65, please take the time to check and see if there’s anything they need.

    Also, remember that we are not all used to temperatures like this so keep homes heated to at least 18 degrees. If you’re able to clear paths of snow or ice, do so. Everyone should keep up to date with weather forecasts so you’re not caught out. Staying well in conditions like this can be a challenge, so if you can check on someone whose health may be at risk, please do.

    Met Office Chief Forecaster, Andy Page said:

    This spell of weather is the coldest that parts of the UK have seen since at least 2013, with extremely low temperatures and disruptive snowfall in many parts throughout the rest of the week.

    This weather could increase the health risks to vulnerable people and disrupt the delivery of services so it’s really important that everyone plans ahead, keep up to date with the forecast and warnings in their area, check for local travel information and follow the advice of local authorities and health professionals.
