Safety

In the event of a disaster or emergency, you will receive information via regional broadcaster NH, social media, NL-Alert and Crisis.nl. The police, fire brigade and other emergency services will also tell you what to do. The sirens may also go off.
Hilversummers Denken Vooruit is the local program about what you can do in your neighborhood to be prepared for emergencies. It helps you think about what you can do at home and in the neighborhood if services temporarily become unavailable. You can find national tips and information at denkvooruit.nl.
There is lead in the soil in various places in Hilversum. You can see these places on the map.
If you believe someone is not complying with the rules, you can report it to the municipality or request enforcement.
Are you worried about someone? You can report signs of radicalization through this hotline. This way, we can respond promptly and—in collaboration with, for example, the police, healthcare providers, or schools—take appropriate action.
