What is police demand?
Police demand refers to all the calls and contacts the public make to the police, whether for emergencies or general enquiries. Greater Manchester Police saw a record 152,000 contacts in July, showing a significant surge in what the public needed from them. This isn't just about crime, but all the ways people seek police help.
