Holiday accidents are a common occurrence, especially for families on a summer break. Cuts and bruises, tumbles and mishaps, are sometimes inevitable and that it’s often best to expect the unexpected.
Zeinab Ardeshir, pharmacist and co-founder of PillSorted, suggests that all families prepare a small supply of basic medical items ahead of any staycation or trips overseas. She said: "A first aid kit that covers the basics is essential and can save a lot of stress, time and money for families.
“Plus, a foreign pharmacy isn’t the most fun place to practise your language skills. But, with a little bit of preparation and forward planning, you can create a very basic kit which can help little ones – and big ones – recover from the majority of basic illnesses or scrapes.”
