The UK has experienced its third heatwave of the summer, with the UK Health Security Agency issuing amber heat health alerts across parts of England over the weekend.

Last month was the warmest June on record in England and the second-warmest for the UK, according to provisional Met Office figures.

It comes as a report from the UK Green Building Council found that the country’s schools, care homes and offices are not equipped for the effects of global heating, with the organisation urging the government to take climate resilience seriously.

We want to hear from you. How are you coping with the heat this summer at work and at home? What impact has hot weather had on you this year? Have you been forced to make lifestyle changes recently to cope with the temperatures?
