Emergency locations

Note: what3words

All of the locations below are listed with a what3words address. If you haven’t got what3words, I heavily recommend you do — it is by far the quickest and most reliable way to get a location across to someone else, especially over the phone. You can access it via their website, or via the iOS app or the Andriod app. The addresses themselves are also hyperlinked, so you should be able to just click on them.

Ambulance access

The below are the easiest places to get an ambulance in the event one is needed during training. When describing a location to the emergency services, quote the what3words address — it’s the fastest way to get the information across.
