Some services publish no working contacts
Police Northern Region Headquarters
Regional headquarters, in Mzuzu
NRWB toll-free line
Faults, leaks and supply problems — works from TNM lines only
ESCOM fault line — 3030
Toll-free line for reporting power faults and outages in Mzuzu and the north — free from Airtel and TNM lines. Published by ESCOM on its official channels.
ESCOM (Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi)
Outage notices and fault reporting online. ESCOM's website was unreachable when we last checked (June 2026); the toll-free fault line above still works, and outage announcements also go out on radio.

Referral hospital for the whole Northern Region. No public phone number could be verified on an official page — in an urgent case, go directly.
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Mzuzu and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.
