2. Press and hold on the message bubble.
3. Tap More.
4. Select the message or messages you want to forward.
5. Tap the arrow on the bottom right of your screen.
6. Input 7726 and send.

Hi PaulNeeds,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue with forwarding SMS messages to another device. We'd like to help.
When you say you're trying to send it to another number, are you using a second iPhone with the same Apple ID or is this someone else's device? The ability to forward those messages is part of Continuity. Check to make sure your devices meet these requirements: System requirements for Continuity on Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch - Apple Support
SMS and MMS messaging requires an activated carrier plan on any iPhone using iOS 8.1 or later. You can then send and receive SMS and MMS messages from these devices:
* Any Mac using OS X Yosemite or later.
* Any iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later.
Let us know more about the device you're trying to forward do and we'll continue to help from there.
The sms message I want to forward is a spam+scam message. I want to send it on to the UK authority that deals with them. It has nothing to do with continuity.
