I recently came across this tip and I think it’s brilliant, but haven’t yet done it. Let me know if you have any extra tips and tricks!

Always have a First aid/medicine kit and a ‘Sick Kit’ to hand.

- The first aid kit, is well, a first aid kit. Bandages, burn cream, scissors, gauze etc. Keep in a location that is easy to reach - perhaps at the bottom of a cupboard. If you live in a house, it might be worth having one upstairs and one downstairs, in case you injure your leg and you can’t get down/up stairs.

- Keep medicines topped up. Always have a stock of hayfever tablets, cough syrup, ibuprofen/paracetamol etc, cold and flu meds like Lemsip or Beechams. Keep a decent box of tissues (like Kleenex) reserved to use if you get a cold suddenly.

In addition to the above I’ve been made aware that syrup based medicines can attract bacteria if you are not actually using the medicine.
