  • All 999 calls are free.
  • 999 covers all emergency services, i.e. fire, police, and ambulance. 
  • State which service you require.
  • Provide clear details of the incident, number of casualties (if any), additional hazards, and the full address of where the incident is taking place, including the building number, road number or name, block number, and any junctions or other landmarks
  • Do not end the phone call until the control officer clears the line.

Other information to supply when making an emergency call:

Approaching the scene

Approach the incident with caution and take steps to make the area safe while you get help, without putting yourself at risk. This can contribute as much to the casualties’ survival and ultimate wellbeing as any subsequent interventions or medical treatment.
