The above form is the agreed method of contact with Force Intelligence at Northumbria Police. This form should be used to share any intelligence with the Force and will be received by our centralised Force Intelligence Management Unit (FIMU).

There are instructions on what can be sent to us on the form, but this cannot be used for reporting crimes.

Any forms that are reporting crimes will be sent back for it to be phoned in to 101.
