ACT Now – Action Counters Terrorism
If you see or hear something that doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts.
It may be nothing, but it could be important.
Report concerns or suspicious activity
What to look out for
Typical signs that something isn’t right may include:
- unusual or suspicious behaviour
- someone showing interest in security or staff-only areas
- abandoned bags or items
- someone taking photos or videos in a way that seems unusual
- behaviour that makes you uncomfortable
What to do in an attack: RUN, HIDE, TELL
RUN – move away from danger if it is safe to do so
HIDE – find cover, silence phones and stay out of sight
TELL – call 999 when safe
