With the very hot weather we have been experiencing recently for this week’s check-in with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick it is all about how best to cope with the heat and hot weather.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey began by asking Elizabeth whether there are certain individuals who are at greater risk in the heat than others.  

Then to what is heat exhaustion and how dangerous might heatstroke be. 

Ending with Elizabeth’s thoughts on reports that some sunscreens have been found to not be giving people the adequate protection they need.
