101 and other non-emergency calls, July 2026
- 35,910 calls received
- 2 seconds typical time to answer
This is the latest month with a published answer time for this force. Forces set up their 101 lines differently, for example with a switchboard or a menu that answers first, so a quick answer does not always mean the call was dealt with quickly.
What isn't published
There are no published figures for how long it takes an officer to get in touch after a report, to attend, or to give an update. That is what people can log here.
1 wait logged so far
Figures appear here once 10 people have logged a wait in the last 90 days. You can log the wait for first contact, for an officer to attend, for a statement or for an update. You can also say whether you were told an officer would attend.
Kept fair
- No case details. We record what you were waiting for and two dates. Nothing about what happened, suspects, victims or evidence.
- No officers named. Figures are for the force and the postcode area, never an individual.
- Non-emergency only. This is for waits after a report, not for calls where someone is in danger.
- Nothing goes to the police. Logging a wait here does not report a crime or chase one up.
