Imagine a time in Dublin before internet or mobile
phones when privately owned fire brigades patrolled the city.
They would only put out a fire if their company “fire mark” was on the burning. Many older buildings still have these fire marks – if you didn’t pay your premium the fire mark was removed!

You can access water rescue though RNLI / Coastguard, call in Ambulance or Fire Brigade the very best in Rescue, it can even get the Gardaí!
Stuck up a mountain? in trouble at sea? one call will give you direct access to the combined emergency services, they can “task” a helicopter or fire engine, rope rescue or lifeboat; whatever is needed.
Trained professionals take your call and ensure that you get the right help quickly and efficiently.

Remember that you should only use 112 when;
- Life is at risk
- You need an ambulance urgently
- Someone is in trouble, or missing, at sea, on cliffs or the shoreline
- Someone is injured or threatened
- There is a fire or people are trapped
- Crime/trouble is happening now or the person committing crime is near
112 is Europe wide, it’s easy to find on a phone or mobile and its free
Remember when you dial 112
