This is the moment a young girl calls 999 for her mum. Today we will be reuniting our ambulance team with eight-year-old Evalyn Palmer to present her with a bravery award for her quick-thinking actions. Evalyn called 999 when her mum Lynette Palmer collapsed due to a non-epileptic seizure. With her one-year-old sister Elena-Monroe present, Evalyn remained composed and provided vital information to our Emergency Medical Advisor Sam Priestley. Sam said: “She stayed calm, answered all my questions

If you can’t work out how to unplug your new electric car, do NOT call the police. Unnecessary calls to 999 are on the rise, making it harder for those who actually need help to get through quickly. Please only call 999 only if a crime is in progress, there’s a threat to life, or someone is in immediate danger. If it’s not an emergency, report online at met.police.uk/contact-us or call 101. Help us keep 999 lines free for genuine emergencies. | Metropolitan Police Service
