999

999 is the emergency telephone number in the UK for immediate, life-threatening situations
It connects you to police, fire, ambulance, or coastguard services
It should be used for serious crimes, major accidents, or medical emergencies like heart attacks or severe bleeding
But not for non-emergencies like reporting stolen property (use 101) or urgent but non-life-threatening medical advice.
