EDF is dealing with an incident at Hartlepool Power Station. Only those who have received pre-prepared emergency information about the power station need to act by going indoors, shutting doors and windows and taking pre-issued stable iodine tablets as directed in accompanying leaflets. Those in the affected area should tune into local media for more information.

If you have never received pre-prepared emergency information about the power station, there is nothing you need do at this time.
