Introduction 

Extensive public education and awareness programmes, supported by a range of 
promotional materials, are presented at schools, libraries, shopping malls and 
community events to promote the correct use of the service. These programmes are 
conducted not only to create awareness of the number but also as part of the effort to 
curtail the abuse of emergency numbers and services.


Wally 107

Wally 107 is our mascot! He travels throughout the unicity to educate 
the public about using the special 107 emergency number for emergency calls. Wally 
visits shopping centres, schools and exhibitions. He also warns children about the danger 
of making hoax calls.
