With
all the winter germs
that are around at the moment
we are becoming increasingly aware of
how important it is to wash our
hands frequently.
It is one of the most simple ways of preventing the
viruses which cause coughs, colds,
flu and stomach upsets. Of course
coughing or sneezing into a handkerchief
is essential to help stop the
spread of airborne bacteria, but
we can protect ourselves from
many germs simply by washing our
hands. |

anti-bacterial cleanser with you in
your bag then Boots have a good range

a situation where you don't have the
necessaries to wash your hands then

the hands quickly and easily.
