There has been an increase in concern around visible drug use and dealing in the Lambourn area, particularly in the area of Market Place. - Residents have raised concern that drug dealers are actively dealing in open areas in front of children and feeling as though there is little consequence.

We are utilising covert and overt opportunities to catch offenders. We are also engaging with users to try to assist them with getting help where possible.
