Charity Age UK warned that the conditions could be dangerous for vulnerable people, including the elderly.

Dr Agostinho Sousa, from the UKHSA, said: ‘This is the first amber Cold Weather Health Alert of the season, but we can expect more as we approach winter, and it is vital to check in on vulnerable friends, family and neighbours to ensure they are well prepared for the onset of cold weather.

‘Particularly if they are elderly or otherwise at increased risk.’
