The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm. Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate. You will not need to take any action.

The Emergency Alerts system is used to warn if there’s a danger to life nearby, including extreme weather. Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency.

ITV News came to interview James Duggan, our Lead Music Therapist and one of his clients, David, about the benefits of music therapy to people with a learning disability.

David was keen to show how he uses music to express himself and work towards self-understanding.

Music therapy is one of the many services we offer from our multidisciplinary teams to support people with learning disabilities to improve their health, wellbeing, and quality of life.
