Phone Numbers

How can I report a crime?

In an emergency always dial 999.

This can be in any of the following circumstances:

  • If life is threatened
  • If someone is injured
  • If the offenders are still nearby
  • If immediate action is required

If you want to report a historical crime where the offenders have already left the area and there is no need for an immediate response, or if you just want some advice or information from the police, you can call the non-emergency number – 0845 60 70 999.

If you want to report crime, or provide information on criminals anonymously, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
