Providing advice and information to the public this winter
Help people stay well and get the most out of health and care services this winter by sharing relevant and timely advice and information on your channels.
About
To help you provide advice and information to the public this winter, we pulled together a collection of relevant content you can use on your website and other communications channels.
If you plan to reproduce this content rather than linking to the advice on our website, please:
- Add local information if you can. For example, provide contact details for local support.
- Do not use images from our website. The image may be a stock image that you need a license to use. Instead, please source your own photos.
We'll update this resource as new advice content becomes available.
