Emergency Alerts is a UK government service that will warn you if there’s a danger to life nearby.
In an emergency, your mobile phone or tablet will receive an alert with advice about how to stay safe.
What happens when you get an emergency alert
Your mobile phone or tablet may:
make a loud siren-like sound, even if it’s set on silent
vibrate
read out the alert
The sound and vibration will last for about 10 seconds.
An alert will include a phone number or a link to the GOV.UK website for more information.
You’ll get alerts based on your current location – not where you live or work. You do not need to turn on location services to receive alerts.
What you need to do
When you get an alert, stop what you’re doing and follow the instructions in the alert.
If you’re driving or riding when you get an alert
You should not read or otherwise respond to an emergency alert whilst driving or riding a motorcycle.
If you are driving, you should continue to drive and not respond to the noise or attempt to pick up the mobile phone and deal with the message.
Find somewhere safe and legal to stop before reading the message. If there is nowhere safe or legal to stop close by, and nobody else is in the vehicle to read the alert, tune into live radio and wait for bulletins until you can find somewhere safe and legal to stop.
It is illegal to use a hand-held device while driving or riding.
Our thanks to Christine, Jonathan, Keith and Ken for planting a brand new section of hedgerow in The Pocket Park off Eaglehurst. Huge thanks also to CPRE who have given us a grant to make this all possible.
It’s going to look lovely – in time! As the hedge establishes and develops it will provide new habitats and food sources for Brixworth Wildlife.
Thanks again to everyone involved from clearing and preparing the area, litter picking and planting. It was amazing to bring community groups together for this project and we hope for more in the future.
Bob, Emma, Christine, Ian, Jonathan, Keith, Ken, Sue and The Brixworth Wombles for your work in the Pocket Park. The ground is now ready for planting the hedge this Sunday, 26th March. 👏 This has all been made possible with thanks to a grant awarded by CPRE, the Countryside Charity.
In addition the park is now cleared of litter thanks to the Wombles. We also created a couple of ‘habitats’ for bugs and other creatures.
If you would like to help plant the new hedge, we welcome volunteers to join us this Sunday, 26th of March at 10am in the Pocket Park, off Eaglehurst.
We are proud to be a member of the Armed Forces Covenant Scheme.
