PLEASE Help the Emergency Services - DISPLAY YOUR HOUSE NAME/NUMBER CLEARLY

IS YOUR HOUSE NAME/HOUSE NUMBER CLEARLY VISIBLE TO THE

AMBULANCE, FIRE SERVICES, POLICE??

Existing problems found in Ruyton XI Towns!!!

  • No house name- plate whatsoever.
  • Name-plate does exist but is overgrown or indistinct eg covered in moss.
  • Name plate is at the end of a drive and not visible from the roadside.
  • Name-plate is on a gate that is left open i.e. 90 degrees to the road and again not visible from the roadside.

Residents need to imagine themselves having to call 999 in the middle of the night.  They need to ask themselves whether a first responder or an ambulance could find their house quickly and in the dark.  Emergency services can only help when they find the house with the patient needing medical assistance.

If you dial 999 in the early hours of the morning, will the emergency services be able to find your house??

Here on the Brownhill, there are 35 houses with the same postcode!  

2am is hardly the time to be able to knock on a door to ask where Mrs. Bloggs of Dunromin lives.

Please help the emergency services by

Making sure your house name or number is clearly visible from the road.
