In Ireland, both 112 and 999 connect you to the emergency services, free of charge, from any phone. The operator will ask which service you need: Gardaí, ambulance, fire or Coast Guard.
Location first
Give the clearest location you can: an Eircode, a townland, a landmark, a trail name or the coordinates shown on your phone's map app.
Stay on the line
Answer the operator's questions and follow their instructions. Keep your phone switched on and nearby afterwards in case they need to call back.
General safety information only. In an emergency in Ireland, call 112 or 999.
