🕷️ A quick tick check after every walk can make a big difference.

As we enjoy the wonderful footpaths, moorland and countryside around East Cheshire and the Peak District, it’s important to remember that ticks can be active in long grass, bracken and heather.

Before heading out:
✅ Wear appropriate clothing
✅ Stay on clear paths where possible
✅ Carry a tick removal tool

After every walk:
🔍 Check yourself carefully for ticks
🔍 Check children and pets too
🔍 Remove any ticks promptly and correctly

A few simple precautions can help keep everyone safe and enjoying the outdoors.
