The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm.

Your mobile phone or tablet will vibrate and make a loud siren-like sound, even if it’s set on silent. The alert message will confirm this is a test and that you do not need to take any further action.

Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency. Find out more at gov.uk/alerts.

You can opt out of the Emergency Alerts, including the national test, but you should keep them switched on for your own safety.

Emergency Alerts will warn you via your mobile or tablet if there's a life-threatening emergency nearby. Only the government and the emergency services are able to send them.

There are simple and effective steps we can all take to be more prepared for an emergency. Visit gov.uk/prepare for advice on how you can prepare.

Today, 15th August, marks 80 years since Victory over Japan was declared, marking the end of the Second World War.

The OpRESTORE team recently visited the National Memorial Arboretum, and spent some time visiting the memorial to those imprisoned during campaigns in the Far East, and its accompanying exhibit. It was timely and eye-opening visit, reminding and educating us on what our allied troops - and civilians alike - bravely endured in order to secure peace across the world 80 years ago.

We remember and honour those who fought throughout the Second World War, both far away and closer to home, and all those who have fought for us since. We continue our work to ensure those still with us and those serving today get the support they need and deserve.

Our team at NHS OpRESTORE is made up of members of the Armed Forces community, such as John - proud Royal Engineer Veteran!

John is one of our Pathway Navigators, who are there every step of the way for Veterans coming through OpRESTORE. They are there to ensure each person understands what we do, their next steps through the NHS and to link in with any and all organisations that may be able to provide even more support through tailored advice.

We are incredibly proud of the work our Pathway Navigators do as a part of our team - a friendly, understanding ear is waiting for anyone who needs further support with their service related physical health need.

Over , our colleagues at NHS England Armed Forces did a brilliant job highlighting some of our Veteran members of the team! It was a fantastic reminder that when your GP refers you to OpRESTORE, or you recommend a referral for a Veteran you're working with, you'll be speaking to people that not only get it but have lived it themselves.

Take a look at what our clinician Ryan has to say here, and ask your GP for a referral to Op RESTORE for support.

This week, the OpRestore Team went on a visit to the National Memorial Arboretum, in order to pay tribute to those names we knew and served side by side with, and to honour all those names who went both before us and served after us.

An unexpected pleasure to bump into Fighting with Pride too, who were there to break the ground for the LGBT+ Service memorial. We can’t wait to see the installation when it’s unveiled.

The visit was a poignant, important reminder of why we do what we do, and why each member of our dedicated Armed Forces Community team are so passionate about the work.

OpRestore is here to help and support you with your service attributable physical health needs after Service - we see you, we are one of you and you can trust that we’ve got you.
