What is the regional operation?

The South West regional drugs intensification week sees all five police forces in the South West work together to tackle those intent on bringing drugs and drug-related crime into our region, reinforcing the message that the South West is #NoPlaceForDrugs.

Throughout the week Avon and Somerset Police have been carrying out activity to target those suspected of being involved in drug supply, as well as raising awareness and education within our communities and carrying out safeguarding and welfare visits on vulnerable people at risk of drug-harm.
