Well, it’s the end of September, and bizarelly the UK looks like it’s finally getting summer weather. We are currently basking in a mini-heatwave, with temperatures expected to get up to 27 degrees C (80 degrees F) in places.
I’m currently in Edinburgh as I’m writing this, and today it has been gloriously warm outside, and the sun has been intense – so much so that I had my sunglasses on today for the first time since July. With this weather we all have concerns about getting too much sun. As a country, we’re now used to the message of putting on high SPF sun creams and wearing hats to protect ourselves in the heat. Although during unusual and unseasonal weather like this we get caught off guard. Wouldn’t it be ideal to be able to protect yourself from both the sun, and the rain, should the need arise.
For a surprising number of our customers using SPF creams is not possible due to sensative skin conditions and for those of us that loath wearing hats, here at Brolliesgalore we have the answer to this with our lovely range of UVP (Ultra-violet protective) umbrellas. These umbrellas have been specifically sourced by us to provide a canopy fabric that protects the user from harmful UV rays.
We have these umbrellas in a variety of canopy designs, and also different sizes – from larger umbrellas with single or double skined canopies, to folding umbrellas that you can easily keep in your bag and are ideal as a travel parasol/umbrella. Price ranges from £37.99 to £29.99 as these umbrellas are of high quality construction and the best materials have been used. We think they would make a great gift idea for your loved ones at Christmas!
