Frost, snow and freezing temperatures have been forecast for the Sheffield area towards the end of this month – so we want to make sure that you stay safe and sound.
Sheffield City Council has published a Winter Information website page and you can also sign up for news and alerts on a variety of topics (including weather problems) to be delivered either to your email address or mobile phone number.
The Council has also issued advice on preventing damp and condensation at home and if you have to step outside it will be useful to find out the state of the roads and pavements and what roads have been gritted in the case of snow and ice. You can also discover where your nearest grit bin is and report if it needs filled.
The council also advises people to look on the Water UK site for advice on how to avoid frozen and burst pipes.
Finally, if you have any health concerns you should contact the NHS’s Help Us Help You Stay Well site for information to help you keep healthy this winter,
