Incident helpline 0800 number

Following the floods in Cumbria, contacts for the authorities have been published. They are 0800 056 0944 and 020 7158 0010.

A Google of the 0800 number reveals that it has been issued in the past for other incidents in other areas.

0800 056 0944 is listed as a free number on O2. It will be interesting to find out whether the other mobile operators also don't charge for calls to this number.

The Three Price Guide says "Certain 0800 numbers as featured on the Telephone Helpline Association (THA) list and Police Casualty Bureau numbers" are free to call for all users of 3's service.
