101 - The new Police non-emergency contact number
Wiltshire Police has changed its non emergency number to 101. The 101 number is being introduced nationally in phases and on 19 September it was launched across forces in the South West, including Wiltshire.
The 101 number should be used for all non emergencies such as: reporting a crime, contacting local officers, getting crime prevention advice, making an appointment with a police officer or making us aware of policing issues in your area. It does not replace 999, which should be used in an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, when there is danger to life or when violence is being used or threatened.
Calls to 101 cost 15p per call, irrespective of how long that call may last. This applies to landlines and mobile phones. People with hearing or speech impairments are able to use the non emergency textphone number 18001 101.

Flood & Emergency Information
The Malmesbury Flood and Emergency Information website brings together a range of useful information together in one place. There is contact information, details of local radio stations, specialist equipment supplier information, and most importantly advice on what to do when faced with flooding or other forms of civil emergency.
Accompanying the information website there is a Facebook group which is the best place to go to discuss issues with members of the community. This group tends to be very active when problems are happening and many members post live news updates - for instance driving conditions, problems etc
