Keeping you alerted

Scottish Borders Alert (SBAlert) Community Messaging System

SB Alert is an online, secure, two-way community messaging system that allows authorised administrators to send dynamic and up-to-date messages to Resilient Communities groups, Neighbourhood Watches and other interested members of the community.  The system is designed to put you in touch with the people and services that matter to you.

Messages are sent by email, telephone or text message by a range of approved information providers including Scottish Borders Council (SBC), Police Scotland, Scottish Fire & Rescue Service, and NHS Borders.  You will receive alerts about severe weather, crime and community safety issues in your area (e.g. bogus callers, metal or farm thefts).  The SBAlert system enables public sector agencies to work with the Resilient Communities groups and others in a new, efficient and secure manner.

 Join hundreds of others in our online SB Alert community. Sign up to receive free crime and community safety alerts, along with crime prevention advice for the area where you live or work in the Scottish Borders - straight to your inbox or phone.
