North Wales Police provides policing services for Flintshire, Wrexham, Denbighshire Anglesey, Conwy, and Gwynedd.

The police force area covers 2,375 square miles with approximately 450 miles of coastline with a population of 688,937 the largest population concentrations are around Deeside and Wrexham.

On average North Wales Police receive 397,162 calls for service per year.

Crime is diverse and ranges from organised crime groups to rural crime, since 2011, victim-based crime in North Wales has reduced by 12.9% but there is a large and growing demand on services through vulnerability such as domestic violence, child sexual exploitation, modern slavery and cyber-crime which are causing a shift of resources to specialist teams to address these problems.

Mark Polin is the current Chief Constable of North Wales Police, he was appointed on 10 September 2009.[/vc_column_text][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”police”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
