Message from National Protective Security Authority
As part of NPSA’s guidance on Personal Safety and Security, we would like to draw your attention to a new video highlighting emergency functions that already exist on most smart phones, smart watches and vehicles. Familiarising yourself with these features could save valuable time in an emergency.
You can set up your mobile telephone so that, when activated, it will call the emergency services, share location information and message emergency contacts. It can be programmed to be noisy or discreet and it can be cancelled if activated in error. It’s easy to do, but you need to check how your handset works, as the settings can vary. Most smart watches and vehicles have similar functionality.
You can watch the video here.
