Please note, we can only provide CCTV footage which identifies a third party in response to requests from:

  • The Police
  • Statutory authorities with powers to prosecute such as Customs and Excise or Trading Standards
  • Solicitors
  • Other agencies agreed by the Data Controller

Under data protection law, Members of the Public have a right to see CCTV footage if they are the subject and they can request this information via a Subject Access Request. A Subject Access Request must be submitted in writing and will only result in footage being viewed or released to the subject where disclosure of that footage does not identify another third party.

To make a request to view CCTV you must:

  1. Complete the Subject Access Request Form:
    Download the Subject Access Request Form – Word Format
    Download the Subject Access Request Form – PDF Format
    Download the Subject Access Request Form (Police version) – Word Format
    Download the Subject Access Request Form (Police version) – PDF Format
  2. Provide evidence of your identity. Details of the documents required can be found below.
  3. Be clear about the exact time, date and location (within one hour).

Please note:

  • Footage is only guaranteed to be retained for 31 days.
  • We are unable to release footage which identifies a third party.
  • We are unable to release vehicle registration details.
  • We are unable to release footage to you if the incident is being investigated by the Police.

What happens next?

On completion of the Subject Access Request, you will receive an email notifying you that the form has been received. If suitable identification documents and a clear description of the incident have been supplied, we will respond to your request within 30 calendar days to let you know if relevant footage has be found.

Can I get a copy of the recording?

You can only get a copy of the recording if the data protection officer is satisfied that it will not become part of a live criminal investigation, civil proceedings, or complaint and that the proper procedures will be followed. Please be aware that there may be a charge for a permanent copy.

Damage to Vehicles

We are not able to release or show you footage of damage being caused to your vehicle if it would identify a third party or their vehicle. In this situation, we would recommend that you contact your insurance company or, in more serious cases, the Police who may be able to view any footage we hold as part of their investigation.

One of the following:

  • Valid photo driving licence
