Ealing CommunitySafe
Ealing Council, Ealing PCT, Metropolitan Police and London Fire Brigade have joined forces to offer one unified communication system called Ealing CommunitySafe to advise and alert residents and businesses to emergencies.
CommunitySafe will offer users the opportunity to receive urgent alerts to live incidents via messages to mobiles (charged at 12p per text) or non-urgent alerts via email for advice and guidance.
