Answer:

It is important that you report anti-social behaviour as it happens to the police. You can do so in three ways:

  1. Call 101: for ASB, including drug dealing (if drug dealing is happening outside of a school or playground, call 999)
  2. Call 999: only in an emergency, if there is a crime occurring, someone is injured, being threatened or threat to life 
  3. Report online via the Metropolitan Police Report ASB page.
Answer:

Council tenants can call to report live incidents on 020 7364 2332, and our teams will work to dispatch Tower Hamlets Enforcement Officers when appropriate.

For incidents that have already occurred, please complete the antisocial behaviour report form.

If you would like to report a crime, then please call 101 or 999 if it is an emergency. 

Answer:

The dealing of drugs is a serious criminal offence and needs to be reported to the police in the first instance. You can report this to the police by:

  1. calling 101 (unless it is taking place outside a school, in which case call 999)
  2. contacting your local police team 
  3. reporting anonymously to Crimestoppers online or call 0800  555 111

Where appropriate, the council works with police and other partners to deal with the range of ASB issues related to the misuse of drugs. However, the police are the main partner for drug-related issues.

If you report is a drugs-related issue to the council, we will refer it directly to Tower Hamlets Police who are responsible for responding to you.
