“The police obtain court warrants to execute at addresses when we have sufficient level of suspicion that drugs or other items are inside the property. This is usually based on the number of reports we receive from the public, and whilst officers are on patrol.

“Without reports from the public we cannot secure this vital information to apply for a warrant. So if you have any information that may help us to obtain a warrant, please share it with us.”

If you have any information relating to drugs, please contact Derbyshire Police by calling 101
