This June Bank Holiday weekend we are asking people to consider all care options before presenting at Emergency Departments. Bank holiday weekends and good weather usually bring additional pressure on the hospital system and the National Ambulance Service.

🚑Please remember that you should only call 112 or 999 in an emergency. Being brought to hospital by ambulance will not get you seen any quicker once there. Please help us to keep ambulances available for life threatening emergencies.
