Guidance Notes and Best Practice Guides

DHPublic Health England (PHE) is reminding people to be ‘tick aware’ this summer by launching new leaflets advising the public on how to prevent tick bites and the risk of contracting Lyme disease. 

Ticks are tiny spider-like creatures and are found in woodlands, parks & gardens.  They are most prevalent in late spring, summer & autumn. PHE is asking the public to be mindful of getting bitten as we increasingly venture outdoors over the coming months.
