How can I keep my house cool during a heatwave?

Keep your home cool during a heatwave by using thermal or blackout blinds to reduce the amount of sunlight entering each room. The aim is to block heat and improve airflow throughout the day to reduce the internal temperature before bedtime rolls around. Open windows when the air feels cold, use a fan to circulate air and swap in light home textiles, throws and fabrics across the home.

How do you care for plants in hot weather?

In hot weather, all plants need moisture and protection from harsh sun rays. Keep a close eye on them, ensuring they're positioned away from the sun or housed inside a greenhouse to keep moisture locked in and prevent them from drying out.
