Plane crash in Ahmedabad
The UK is working with local authorities in India to urgently establish the facts and provide support to those involved.
Dorset Police is committed to delivering exceptional local policing, putting local communities at the heart of everything we do and to providing a safe county for everyone.
Each ward area has a dedicated Neighbourhood Policing Team, supported by a Neighbourhood Enforcement team and Rural crime team that collaborate with partners and stakeholders to target activity, tackling issues that are important to local communities.
We are committed to ensuring our teams are visible, connected, and accessible, through regular engagement opportunities.
To view our pledge to support your area, please select Neighbourhood Engagement Commitment (NEC). If you'd like to receive regular updates about what we're doing in your area, sign up to Dorset Alert.
