The station acts as a base for neighbourhood policing teams, crime reporting, community engagement and local safety initiatives. While some services are appointment-based, the site supports frontline policing across Swadlincote and nearby villages.
Residents are encouraged to use online reporting or emergency telephone services where appropriate, but the station remains an important local presence for community reassurance and support.
