How do you report domestic abuse in an emergency?
As always, victims of domestic abuse can call 999 in an
emergency. There is an option to remain silent should they
be afraid of being heard by the abuser; pressing 55 on
their mobile handset will indicate to the call handler that
they need the police. This is called the “Silent Solutions
System”, more information can be found here.
