Call 999 in an emergency. This is when someone is seriously ill or there is danger to life, use, or immediate threat of use, of violence.

Call the NHS 111 number if you have an urgent medical problem and you are not sure what to do.

There are different police forces that cover different areas of the United Kingdom. If you you live in Carlisle, Eden, Barrow, South Lakeland, Allerdale or Copeland your local police force is Cumbria Constabulary.
