Reporting an emergency

In an emergency dial 999

If you have an emergency or witness an emergency, you should immediately dial 999 when safe to do so.

When you dial 999

• the first voice you'll hear is the 999 operator who will ask which service you require
• tell them if you need the police, fire, ambulance or coastguard
• they will also ask for your telephone number. If your line is cut or you are unable to continue the call, the operator can call you back
• the controller will ask you a number of important questions, including what the address or site is of your emergency. If you're unsure of the location or don't have an address, look for local landmarks that you recognise or any other way that may assist in pinpointing your location
• the controller may ask for your exact What3Words location
• the controller may also prompt you to try and assist

You should not hang up and should try to remain calm.
