Emergency guidance
Use Official Emergency Routes First
This page explains the safest first action when there is immediate danger or urgent child protection concern.
Emergency-first rule
If someone is in immediate danger, call 112 or local police first. For urgent child help, call 1098 where available. Do not wait for a website reply, comment, email or social media response during an emergency.
Protect privacy
Do not publish a child’s name, photo, school, address, phone number, medical detail or private case information online. Share sensitive details only with official authorities or qualified professionals through appropriate channels.
