    You should call 101 to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response. For example:

    • Your car has been stolen
    • Your property has been damaged
    • You suspect drug use or dealing in your neighbourhood
    • Give the police information about crime in your area
    • Speak to the police about a general enquiry

    To contact the NHS for non-emergency medical advice and assistance, dial 111

    When should use 111?

    You should use the NHS 111 service if you urgently need medical help or advice but it's not a life-threatening situation.

    Call 111 if:

    • you need medical help fast but it's not a 999 emergency
    • you think you need to go to A&E or need another NHS urgent care service
    • you don't know who to call or you don't have a GP to call
    • you need health information or reassurance about what to do next

    For less urgent health needs, contact your GP or local pharmacist in the usual way. If a health professional has given you a specific phone number to call when you're concerned about your condition, continue to use that number. For immediate life-threatening emergencies, continue to call 999.
