Tick Alert campaign
The Tick Alert campaign aims to raise awareness of tick-borne diseases both at home and abroad. Tick Alert warns UK holidaymakers and travellers to be aware of the infections that ticks can cause, including Lyme disease which is prevalent in the UK and Tick Borne Encephalitis (TBE) in mainland Europe. Visit the website to find out more.
Ticks are present in the areas we orienteer in, so make sure you check yourself after a visit to the outdoors.
