So simple but such a useful tool
Dementia is one of the biggest categories of missing people we look for. We launched the Herbert Protocol in partnership with @HantsPolice Completing a simple lifetime survey captures all essential information required to plan a search. bit.ly/2T1HQT7

#BritishSignLanguage users can make calls to the emergency services using video relay from next year, under new Ofcom rules. This will make it easier for people who use BSL to get the help they need for them and others in emergencies. ofcom.in/emrgvidrelay
