This means the landline or devices such as cordless phones and other devices (like medical alarms) may not be able to work - even if they have a battery. This could impact your ability to contact 111 emergency services.
Make sure you have another way to access 111 in an emergency.
We recommend you have an alternative method, such as a charged mobile phone or a power backup device such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to keep you connected.
