For all emergencies dial 999

101 is the new Police non-emergency number.  101 is the number to call when you want to contact your local police - when it is less urgent than a 999 call.  101 is available 24 hours a day / 7 days a week.

When to call 101: you should call 101 to report less urgent crime and disorder or to speak to your local officers.  For example you should call 101 if your car has been stolen; your property has been damaged; you suspect drug use or dealing in your neighbourhood or to report a minor traffic collision; give the police information about crime in your area or to speak to the police about a general enquiry.
