What’s the 999 BSL or Emergency Video Relay Service (EVRS)? How do they work?

Updated over 3 months ago

999 BSL and EVRS are essential if you're a British Sign Language (BSL) user needing quick emergency help. These services allow you call a BSL interpreter via video call, who then connects you to the 999 emergency services.

All you need is the app, and in a crisis, one push of a button brings an interpreter to your screen, ready to relay your emergency instantly.

💁 There's no data worries either — we make sure it’s all free.
