We had 43 silent 999 calls in November where we were needed at the scene immediately – that’s more than one every single day 😞 📱
Most of these calls were from people suffering domestic abuse, who couldn't say much but urgently needed our help to escape a desperate situation or confide in officers what had happened to them 🏠 🚓
Did you know? Dialling 55 after calling 999 alerts police operators that you need help but are in a situation where you can't talk.
Pressing 55 lets the 999 operator know your call is genuine, and they will try to track your location. If you can't speak, listen carefully to the questions and instructions from our demand hub call agents so they can assess your call and arrange help.
