Hand hygiene matters — and we’ve got a lesson for that which supports PSHE and shows why washing hands after the toilet helps prevent infection, using the fun Toilet Paper Experiment. 👩🔬

Infection prevention and antimicrobial resistance are in the curriculum, but children often don't know much about them. e-Bug can help raise awareness and equip the next generation to combat this public health crisis. During 2026, use e-Bug resources to help make a difference.

Germs can travel far with a sneeze or cough! Teach children how infections spread—and how to stop them:
✔️ Use a tissue or your sleeve (not hands!)
✔️ Catch it, bin it, kill it
✔️ Hands spread germs too!
