Promoting that the nunber exists as a actual thing people should use is good, yeah. :)

The actual number isn't so important, though. If ever needed to call the non-emergency number I'd search it up, which fortunately I can do given I've got loads of time because it's not an emergency.

I would bet there are large swaths of people that don't know there is a nonemergency number to look up.
