Read about the force area…
- The force covers a small but densely populated area that includes the towns of Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees as well as some rural communities.
- There are areas of high deprivation and unemployment but the region is also important to the British economy, with chemical plants, a large port on the Tees and a nuclear power station.
- The chemical industry presents the force, other emergency services and partners with a significant major incident risk.
- The force is one of the first in England and Wales to work in partnership with the private sector to deliver a wide range of support services, including call handling.
- Cleveland has a strong record in driving down crime with reductions in almost all crime catorgories over the last two years. However, the force recognises the need to improve performance to reduce violent crimes.
