What to do if your child is unwell

As the weather gets colder and we all spend more time indoors, infectious illnesses increase including for young children. This also increases pressure on the NHS, and especially within Accident and Emergency (A&E) departments. Please remember, A&E is only for life-threatening emergencies and you should always use the right service for your needs.

We know it can be frightening when your child is unwell.
