Important info on hidden phones from Women's Aid Armagh Down

On Sunday 7 September 2025, the UK Government will be testing the Emergency Alert System, which sends loud alerts to mobile phones across the country.

If you have a hidden phone, it’s important to switch off these alerts, as they could reveal the phone’s existence.

A video and instructions on how to do this can be found here: 👉 https://bit.ly/4gc2h7a

‼️Update 17/7/25 12.00‼️

We continue to have no internet, due to circumstances beyond our control. This means we continue to have no phone line or access to patient notes and services.

The engineers are working hard to try to restore our internet and phone lines.

Please only contact the surgery in an emergency. We appreciate your understanding.

If you do need to order a repeat prescription, please ring the usual surgery number BETWEEN 18.00-08.00 and leave a voicemail in the usual way. We hope to gain access to this via other means.
