Please don’t ring 999 if there’s a spider in your house.

This is just one example of an inappropriate call that we’ve had to our 999 emergency line.

On average, we receive 120 calls a day to our 999 line that are not a life or death emergency.

One is too many.@WYP_Contact pic.twitter.com/ykzwmRhvGR
