Run. Hide. Tell.
Staying safe from terrorism

Recent events in the UK and around the world remind us all of the terrorist threat we face, which in the UK is considered as 'SEVERE', meaning an attack is highly likely. Police and security agencies are working tirelessly to protect the public but it is also important that communities remain vigilant and aware of how to protect themselves if the need arises.
Run
Run to a place of safety. This is a far better option than to surrender or negotiate. If there's no where to go, then...
Hide
It's better to hide than to confront. Remember to turn your phone to silent and turn off vibrate. Barricade yourself in if you can. Then finally, and only when it is safe to do so...
Tell
Tell the police by calling 999.
