London Heatwave Hits Ambulance Services | UK News

from UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

London’s ambulance service is in overdrive as heatwaves push emergency calls to record highs—over 53,000 in just June alone, surpassing pandemic peaks. With temps soaring to 36°C under an Amber Heat-Health Alert, crews are stretched thin responding to cardiac and breathing emergencies. Vulnerable populations face heightened risks, so stay cool, hydrate, avoid alcohol in the sun, and watch out for loved ones. Combined June-July calls hit 403,000—25,000 more than last year. It’s a collective responsibility: keep safe, stay indoors when it’s hottest, and protect each other. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
