Be cautious around flammable liquids, open flames, campfires, and firepits. If you do get a minor burn or injury: ✅ Start with self-care ✅ Visit your local pharmacy for advice ❗ If it feels more serious, call NHS 111 nhsfife.org/summersafe

It's important your child gets all the vaccines they are offered at the right time to make sure they've got longer-term protection as they grow up. When it's time, you'll receive a letter from the NHS with details of the appointment and what vaccines they're being offered.
