It's easy for Southport residents to contact Merseyside Police if it's not an emergency

Merseyside Police posting on Facebook.

If you need us this weekend, either to report a crime has happened or to tell us about an incident, then the best way is to direct message the Merseyside Police Contact Centre page on social media. 

It's fast, safe and secure, with trained contact resolution officers available 24/7 to answer any non-emergency or crime reports online.

Our lines do get busy at certain times of the day and waiting on 101 can be time-consuming for you.

So if you need us and its not an emergency then find our contact centre's page on Facebook and also over on Twitter @MerPolCC and we will deal with your enquiry or answer your question as soon as possible.

Have a safe and enjoyable weekend and remember to always call 999 in an emergency.
