Dear Parents/Carers,

Please continue to check for head lice. While head lice are nothing more than a nuisance, it is important that children are checked on a weekly basis so that any head lice can be dealt with quickly and before they can be allowed to spread. There's nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed about having head lice. Having head lice is nothing to do with good or bad hygiene. There are pesticide, non-pesticide, combing and alternative treatements on the market. Your pharmacist will be able to help you work out which is best for you and your family. You will be able to use the NHS Minor Ailment Scheme to get advice and free treatment.
