If you’re in danger, call 999, listen and respond to questions and instructions and make yourself heard by coughing, tapping the handset or once prompted by the automated system, by pressing 55. Police will do their best to respond.

No-one should have to live with domestic abuse and it is never OK. Knowing what to do to make yourself heard if you’re in danger could be life-saving, so we’re encouraging as many people as possible to share this important information.
