A project to assist vulnerable people in emergency situations across the Island will be running until the end of this year.

The First Point Community Portal is a secure online channel that allows emergency services to respond more quickly to a persons individual needs.

For users who register, the system can identify a person; bring them to a place of safety; provide higher quality care and be able to get in touch with loved ones.

More information is available on the First Point Community Portal Facebook page.
