The UK Emergency Alerts System

The UK Government is carrying out testing of the UK Emergency Alerts system across the UK on 23rd April 2023. The messages will be clearly labelled as a test.

The alert will say: “This is a test of Emergency Alerts, a new UK government service that will warn you if there’s a life-threatening emergency nearby. In an actual emergency, follow the instructions in the alert to keep yourself and others safe. Visit gov.uk/alerts for more information. This is a test. You do not need to take any action.”
