Media Contact

Corporate communications has a key role within the Cornwall Police Service in terms of building and maintaining the public's understanding and support of our services. Our goal is to provide timely and accurate information to the public, via the media. This is done by issuing news releases, holding news conferences, responding to media inquiries and arranging interviews with our officers and personnel.

Media Policy
