When you call 999, please give your full address and/or location, including any house name and/or number in the road and the nearest road junction or landmark (near the post box etc.). Some house names can sound like road names, and vice versa, so please make clear which is which when you call. Any extra pieces of information you give can help get you a faster response.
It is extremely important to consider whether your house name or number is visible from the road during the day. And what about at night, especially if you live in an area where there is no street lighting or where it is poor?
If the emergency services or responders can't identify your house quickly they will waste precious minutes trying to find you. For some ideas on what you can do visit the "999 where are you?" website. Simply go to our Campaigns and Health Advice Pages and follow the link from there.
