Community Policing Inspector Daniel Greenhalgh said: “We know the harm that drug supply causes, both to drug users, and in the serious and organised crime and violence that comes with such activity. 
 
“These results were the result of good proactive policing work, but we will also act on information which comes in from those communities who feel the harm, so get this to us directly or anonymously and we will do the rest.”
