Crimestoppers launches campaign targeting  cannabis farms & cocaine dealers in NW England and North Wales

Anonymous reporting encouraged on those involved in supply of cocaine and large-scale cannabis cultivation.

Criminals don't care who they exploit, or about the violence and damage they bring to our communities. They destroy lives whilst pursuing vast profits.

Drug sales fuel many other serious crimes such as: shootings; stabbings; County Lines; debt bondage; exploitation of young people; sexual exploitation and modern slavery.

These activities are carried out by both local crime gangs and people from overseas who exploit those who have been brought into the UK illegally to work in cannabis farms, or to sell and transport drugs.

discover more about cannabis cultivation, & the dangers and harms associated with it.


Crimestoppers has launched a major campaign to encourage local people to help make North West England and North Wales a safer place to live and work, by passing on information completely anonymously to us so that law enforcement can act.

Do you have information about these or other crimes? Speak to us on 0800 555 111 or fill in our online form, here on our website - and stay 100% anonymous. Guaranteed.

Detailed anonymous community intelligence that Crimestoppers receives – either online or via the phone – helps disrupt gang activity and keep our streets and communities safe.

Your information can help save lives and make your area safer for you and your family.
 

What sort of information is useful?

  • Who runs the local drugs trade?  
  • Which properties are being used to grow cannabis?
  • Which premises are regularly used for drug dealing?
  • What are the names of those members of serious crime gangs in the area?
  • Are they living a lavish lifestyle but not working?
  • Do you know or suspect which 'cash only' businesses might be money laundering?
  • How do they recruit those who are being exploited?
  • Do you have concerns that individuals are victims of modern slavery?
“Every year across the North West we receive over 30,000 pieces of 'actionable’ or high-quality information. This leads to a significant number of arrests, millions of pounds of drugs seized, and weapons being taken off our streets.

"Only through people taking the brave step of reporting anonymously what is going on in their areas to our charity will we see a cut in the pain and suffering that our communities face from drug crime.

"“If you know who is involved in drug crime or orchestrating a drug gang, please contact our charity. Only you will know you contacted us."
