The Silent Solution is a way to get help from the police when you are in danger, but can’t speak;
- Dial 999.
- Listen to the questions from the 999 operator.
- Respond by coughing or tapping the handset if you can.
- If prompted press 55 this lets the 999 call operator know there is a genuine emergency and you’ll be put through to the police.
