As the cold weather approaches, Guernsey's Public Health is giving advice on how to stay well this winter.

While temperatures become cooler, generally more people become unwell.

Increased time spent indoors can also contribute to the higher number of people contracting infections as germs can spread more easily.

As a result, Public Health has put together resources to promote Winter Wellbeing.

Public Health Business Manager Yvonne Le Page introduces the campaign.

"We have run wellness and wellbeing campaigns over the past couple of years. Whilst many in our community are able to stay healthy over the winter period, others find this more difficult and often don’t know where to go for help and support.

This year in particular we know people in our community may be struggling due to issues such as the lasting impact of Covid-19 and the increase in the cost of living.

As the campaign progresses, we will be working with our charitable and other partners to provide information to support the community this winter."

Some of the recommendations include information on how to stay warm this winter, advice on staying home if you feel unwell, and how to look after your mental wellbeing.
