The latest respiratory report shows influenza activity has again increased across all surveillance indicators.

Flu is spreading, you can help stop the spread by:
• Washing your hands regularly
• Catching coughs and sneezes in a tissue
• Minimising contact with others
• Getting vaccinated if you are eligible

For further information on the flu vaccine see www.nidirect.gov.uk/wintervaccines

The PHA surveillance reports are available at www.pha.site/Respiratory-surveillance-report / www.pha.site/Vaccine-uptake

With Christmas fast approaching and the additional mixing that comes over the festive season, including visiting older and vulnerable relatives, the PHA are encouraging eligible people to take up the offer without delay.

Fancy your school, community group or small charity being in the running to be awarded up to £1500? Groundwork NI work with Tesco to help local organisations apply to the grant scheme, directly helping each NI region to support groups that are truly local to each customers area. The next round closes early February and applications from schools & young people groups are low in the Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council , , , , , and areas.
Its a rolling programme, with a fairly easy application form. Tesco do like children and young peoples projects, addressing food poverty and healthy eating, but other groups can apply, and do get shortlisted on a regular basis! For more information check out https://tescostrongerstarts.org.uk/apply-for-a-grant/
You can also chat to your Tesco Community Champion at your local store or email [email protected]. Good Luck!!
