Current Priorities

Issue

If you are concerned about someone who may be drink/drug driving or dealing drugs in your community, you can report your concerns by ringing 101/999 (if urgent) , via Crimestoppers online or by ringing 0800555111.  You can remain anonymous and your information may save a life.

Action

Please keep reporting any concerns about suspected drug dealing or drink/drug driving in your community.   We can use that information to plan patrols, enquiries and required action.
You can report via 101 (non urgent) ,  via the Avon and Somerset website, via Crimestoppers online or by ringing 0800555111.
