Scots issued safety warnings during busy summer heatwave weekend 

Police Scotland, the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service and NHS Scotland are among authorities warning over various dangers during the extreme heat.

In case you haven’t noticed, it’s been hot today, and it’s going to get hotter over the weekend.

Scotland is gearing up for a summer scorcher – on a weekend when hundreds of thousands of us will be tempted to travel for fun, festivals, or just fancying an adventure.

But behind all that – staying in the shade – will be a team making sure you stay safe and the weekend runs smoothly.
