Dialling 999
If you have a medical emergency or you witness a serious accident or crime you should dial 999 or 112.
A trained member of staff will answer your call. You’ll be asked to describe what happened and your location. The operator will determine which emergency services you require, and they’ll dispatch the police, fire and rescue, coastguard or an ambulance as needed.
It’s important that you listen to what the operator tells you and that you try to remain calm.
