The UK government is testing the Emergency Alerts system on Sunday, September 7 at 3pm. Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate.

You will not need to take any action.

“The Emergency Alerts system is used to warn if there’s a danger to life nearby, including extreme weather,” said a Government spokesperson.

“Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency.”
