UK Terror Threat – 'Level Substantial'
The UK terror threat level is 'substantial'. This means that ‘an attack is still likely’. Although there is no known specific threat to the NHS, and we continue to deliver business as usual, security has been enhanced. Staff and visitors have been advised to be extra vigilant. You can help by raising any concerns or reporting any suspicious activity to our Security Department on telephone 01555 840293. Thank you. Note: The Scottish Government has produced the following two leaflets for the public.
