Scottish Government's 'Prepare for Hot Weather' Campaign
Created: 23/06/2025
News/Events Category: General News
We may joke about the weather in Scotland, but heat is a real risk that can affect anyone.
Hot weather can cause dehydration, overheating, heat exhaustion, and heatstroke, with serious consequences if not treated quickly.
Climate change means that Scotland will experience hotter, drier summers, with greater extremes.
The Scottish Government have a launched a campaign to:
- Raise awareness of the key dangers associated with hot weather
- Increase understanding of how to have a safe and responsible summer, whether at home or out and about
- Highlight key resources the Scottish public can use to learn how to keep themselves, their families and their community safe in hot weather
