On Thursday, September 9th we’ll join with people across the UK to mark Emergency Services Day (or 999 Day) - a national event paying tribute to the millions of people who work and volunteer across the emergency services and NHS.

On Thursday, September 9th we’ll join with people across the UK to mark Emergency Services Day (or 999 Day) - a national event paying tribute to the millions of people who work and volunteer across the emergency services and NHS.

Founded in 2016 by Tom Scholes-Fogg, 999 Day has secured the support of Her Majesty The Queen, Their Royal Highnesses The Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall and Duke of Cambridge. It has the backing of the Prime Minister and the First Ministers of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

999 Day is also aimed at promoting efficiency and educating the public about using the services responsibly. It aims to promote emergency services charities and highlight the many different career and volunteer roles available.

North Wales Police Chief Constable Carl Foulkes said: “999 Day is an opportunity to take a moment to recognise the dedication of all of those who work tirelessly across the emergency services and the NHS, including those who give their time voluntarily, without whom the emergency services could not operate effectively.  

“The last 18 months has been a challenging time for everybody, and I want to also thank everyone here at North Wales Police – officers, staff and volunteers – for their monumental efforts and teamwork over the last few months.

“Although 999 day is a day-long event, we will take the opportunity to shine a light on the work that we do over a week-long period via our social media channels. So between 9th and 16th September we’ll be highlighting the good work that we do looking at various departments such as local policing and our wonderful dogs, and will also highlight any recruitment opportunities.

“We will also be taking the opportunity to further promote some of our ongoing campaigns and social media users can follow #999Day to find out more.”

Police and Crime Commissioner, Andy Dunbobbin said: “As Police and Crime Commissioner I know that our communities overwhelmingly continue to support the emergency services and I am proud to support 999 Day to show my appreciation and gratitude to those who play a core part in keeping North Wales safe.

“Over the last 18 months our wonderful officers, staff and volunteers have come to work, day-in-day-out, to protect and serve the public, and have all taken even greater risks to help protect our communities. All have shown incredible strength and bravery, and I would like to say thank you for all that they have done, and continue to do, to keep us all safe.”

North Wales Police will be highlighting the work of our officers, volunteers and staff with a week-long social media campaign running from 9th – 16th September. Please follow the official event hashtag #999Day.

  • Further information is available via the official Emergency Services Day website 999Day.org.uk
