Scheduled: 7 September 2025 - 15:00 to 15:30
The Government has announced that a second national test of the Emergency Alerts system will take place on 7 September 2025 at 3pm [link to press notice]. This follows the first national test in April 2023.
The UK’s Emergency Alerts system enables the government and the emergency services to warn people about life-threatening emergencies. Regular testing ensures the system is functioning correctly, should it need to be used in a life-threatening emergency.
Compatible mobile phones and tablets will receive an alert, make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate. You can find out more on this at gov.uk/alerts. You can also learn about how to prepare for an emergency at gov.uk/prepare.
