If you're asked by our 999-control room if you can make your own way to hospital, please do so. Our ambulances carry life-saving equipment and highly-skilled ambulance staff, and should only be used by patients who need ongoing treatment on the way to hospital #HelpUsHelpYou

We have Rupert out in the response car today. It's a little bit gusty... Please be careful if you're out and about. There's lots of detritus lying around. @ Northampton, Northamptonshire https://t.co/xEIrXeMIVD

We urge people in the region to avoid going outside unless it's absolutely necessary and if you have no choice, prepare properly and take great care: https://t.co/YQFE38kYYY

Residents near the Lincolnshire coast should be extra vigilant of large waves and stay away from the sea.

FACT: If you call 999 but are not experiencing a life-threatening emergency, you may not have an ambulance sent to you immediately or at all. This is because we prioritise patients whose life is at threat. For example, someone who is reported to be experiencing a cardiac arrest.

Nearly a third of UK adults wouldn't attempt CPR if they saw someone in cardiac arrest according to The British Heart Foundation. This is why 15th October and Restart a Heart Day exists. Get trained, become a life saver, you can do it. #RestartAHeart @EMASNHSTrust

16 and 17 year olds are eligible for the vaccine. Get your jab so you don't miss out on anything. Book your vaccine via your GP surgery or find your nearest walk-in centre.
