Rule of 4 Covert Alarm
This process has been designed to give you a means of raising an alarm covertly if you are unable to do so via normal channels. The video will provide an in-depth description of the process. We hope you'll never need it but we want to ensure you can keep yourself safe in as many ways as possible.
Important:
The Rule of 4 process should only be used in case of emergency. The police will be called if you raise the alarm using this initiative.
