Police have issued a timely warning about keeping dogs safe in the heatwave.
Local PCSO Lucy Green has sent out a message over the Neighbourhood Alert system to say: "In this hot weather, please consider not walking your dogs - the pavements are hot and the air is humid, this can cause our furry friends to overheat, and worse.
"It concerned me yesterday seeing so many dogs out and about in the peak heat - the forecast today is looking hotter again."
And on a general safety theme, she adds: "Whilst it is also imperative that us humans stay cool too, remember to keep properties secure, where possible don't leave accessible windows and doors open and unsupervised. Criminals will take any opportunity."
