Touch and hold on the text you wish to forward.


Select "More" at the foot of the options which present. The text will then have a tick in the circle to the left.


At the foot of the screen you will see a forwarding arrow. Touch on it and a new message will be crated with the text.


Enter the name of the contact to whom you want to forward the text in the subsequent blank To box and select a phone number.


When you are ready it can be sent in the usual way - touch on the upward facing arrow.
