National Emergency Alert Test – Sunday 7 September at 3PM

This Sunday, the UK Government will test the Emergency Alerts system. If you have a compatible 4G or 5G mobile phone or tablet, you’ll receive a loud siren-like sound, vibration, and a message on your screen confirming it’s a test. It will last around 10 seconds and you don’t need to take any action.

How to Opt Out of Alerts If Needed
If the alerts might be distressing for anyone in your house or you care for, or if you are a victim of domestic abuse and have a hidden phone, it’s important to know how to turn off alerts safely.

iPhone users:
Head to ‘Settings’
Select ‘Notifications’
Turn off ‘Severe Alerts’ and ‘Extreme Alerts’

Android users:
Head to ‘Settings’
Search for ‘Emergency Alerts’
Turn off ‘Severe Alerts’ and ‘Extreme Alerts’

Watch this video for guidance: www.gov.uk/alerts/opting-out

Instructions vary by phone manufacturer, so please check your device settings or visit the Government’s Emergency Alerts page for help.

🌟 A-Level Results Day Reminder 🌟

Hey everyone! As we approach A-Level Results Day, we want to remind you that your results do not define your worth or your future. Whether you get the grades you hoped for or not, success comes in many forms, and it’s important to remember that your mental health and wellbeing matter most.

Join us at the Mental Health Cafe for a safe space to talk about your feelings. Link of venues in bio ☺️

You are not alone in this journey. Remember, it’s okay to feel whatever you’re feeling. We’re here for you! 💚

Feeling anxious about exam results? You’re not alone.

Tellmi is a free, anonymous, safe space, funded by the NHS. It allows you to talk about your worries, share your feelings, and receive support from people who understand - whether they’re peers experiencing the same situation or trained professionals ready to help.
No judgement. No pressure. Just a supportive community to help you through.

If you’re waiting for results and need someone to talk to, search for Tellmi in the App Store.
