Founded in 1839, Lancashire Constabulary covers some 2,000 square miles. The county has a population of nearly 1.5 million with a rich diversity of communities, all with specific policing needs. The force is divided into three territorial (East, South and West) and two support divisions. Within territorial divisions emergency calls are attended by geographic patrol officers while neighbourhood policing is managed by neighbourhood policing teams. Lancashire Constabulary’s ambition is to consistently be the best police force in the country by always putting people first, focusing on Neighbourhood Policing, Diversity, Quality and Protecting People.
