101  Is The New Police Non-Emergency Number

As part of a national programme, the Cheshire Police non-emergency number of 0845 458 0000 has been replaced with 101. 

This number will provide a single non-emergency number across England and Wales and should be used to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response.

Examples:

  • If your car has been stolen
  • Damage or vandalism to your property
  • Suspected drug use or dealing
  • To provide information about a crime

Calls to 101 will be charged at a flat rate of 15 pence no matter how long the duration of the call is, what time of day it is or whether the call is from a landline or mobile phone.

Where there is a threat to life or a crime in progress or another genuine emergency, continue to call the 999 number. If you have any questions or comments about using the 101 number please email: western.watch@cheshire.pnn.police.uk
