You may have seen recent news about the national terrorism threat level being raised to severe, which means an attack is considered highly likely.
There is no information to suggest a specific threat to local communities. Police and local partners are continuing to work together to help keep people safe, including increasing their presence in some areas.
We know news like this can feel unsettling. We’re sharing this so you have clear, factual information and know what to do if something doesn’t feel right.
What this means for you
You can continue your day-to-day activities as normal. It may help to:
- stay aware of your surroundings
- trust your instincts if something doesn't feel right
- look out for neighbours and other in your community
Most people won’t notice any difference day to day, but these small actions help everyone stay alert and supported.
Reporting concerns and getting support
If you see or hear something that doesn’t feel right, it’s important to report it. Acting early helps keep everyone safe.
You can report concerns at gov.uk/ACT.

If you’re unsure, it’s always okay to report it and let the police decide.
