The Golden Rules of Reporting
Trust your instincts - Call 999 if you are in threat or need urgent response.
​
For non-urgent issues, persevere with 101 to speak to the police if you need to (If possible, do this at quieter times to avoid long wait times).
​
Information to give
-
date
-
time
-
location, as much detail as possible
-
photos/videos if you can take safely
ALWAYS REPORT via website or via an app - it’s the only way the full picture of incidents can be understood and resources allocated accordingly.
Get the apps – it makes reporting much easier and sends the information direct.
