Details

The tick awareness toolkit gives information on ticks and Lyme disease and how to raise awareness of ticks and tick-borne diseases in your local area.

The tick awareness leaflets and posters can be used to encourage awareness of the risk of tick bites.

The Word document versions allow you to co-brand with UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) by adding your logo.

The recording form is for capturing details of your tick encounter to share with UKHSA.

UKHSA’s tick surveillance scheme explains how to take part in the scheme and how to complete the form.
